2012 Chevrolet TRAVERSE Seat Belts Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1318174
Internal NHTSA #	10906807

Model	TRAVERSE
Model Year	2012
File date	01/12/15
Component	SEAT BELTS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The middle seatbelts in the middle and back row lock up and will not release. First in the second row, the middle seatbelt locks up when the seat gets folded down. The seatbelt will then not release. Sometimes you can pull it out and let it go back a few times and it will eventually come out, but not every time. The middle seatbelt in the third row seat became wrapped around my child's neck and would not release. I had to pull over and the belt was locked so tight around his neck that i could not maneuver it to get it off of his neck. I was eventually able to get him to bend his neck far enough to get it our from behind him, but this could have been catastrophic if he did not or was not able to notify me when it happened. This happened while the car was moving. Passenger airbag light keeps coming on.
