Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | Center seat belt in the middle back row which pulls down from the roof of the vehicle failed when making a quick stop to avoid an accident due to another car improperly changing lanes into our lane. Speed of travel was 45mph on the straight away on a city street. The passenger's head was aiming for the center console and was buffered by the passenger extending his hands to not hit the center console. The seat belt appears to be working now, but we cannot be sure that it will continue to function properly or if the others may also work intermittently in the future. |
