Owner complaintsComplaints 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.

RETRACRING OF SEATBELT FAILED CAUSING SEATBELT TO RETAIN SLACK ONCE CLIPED. THEN CAUSING SEATBELT TO NOT FIT TIGHTLY AGAINST PASSENGERS.

NHTSA ID 10192573 · filed Jun 6, 2007

I OWN A 94 DODGE STEALTH R/T. HAS ABOUT A LITTLE OVER 77K MILES ON IT AND EVER SINCE I GOT IT, WHEN IT ONLY HAD 25K MILES ON IT, THE SEAT BELT HAS NEVER REALLY RETRACTED PROPERLY AND ALWAYS HAS SLACK IN IT IF PULLED ON. I HAVE TO WORK THE SEAT BELT THROUGH THE SLOT IT IS SUPPOSED TO RETRACT IN, IN ORDER FOR IT TO COME BACK TO WHERE IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE. *NM

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
