Owner-reported complaints naming the seat belt system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Seat belts reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Crash reported2 injuries reported
WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, WE WERE REAR-ENDED BY A 1984 CHEVROLET VAN. BOTH PARTIES IN THE TRUCK WERE WEARING A SEATBELT AT TIME OF ACCIDENT. BOTH FRONT 50/50 BENCH SEAT BACKS, ONLY ALLOWED TO FUNCTION LIFTING FORWARD, COLLAPSED BACKWARDS. THIS CAUSED TWO PASSENGERS TO FALL BACKWARDS TO THE EXT. CAB PORTION OF THE TRUCK, WHERE NORMALLY OUR KIDS SIT. AT ONLY 6'0" TALL, MY HUSBAND'S HEAD WENT THROUGH THE BACK WINDSHIELD OF THE TRUCK CAUSING NECK AND BACK INJURIES.
