| Description of the problem | The middle seat belt buckle in the backseat will not unbuckle. The metal part will come as much as halfway out, but cannot fully be released from the buckle. This seat belt is rarely used, but now no one can sit there because it is permanently engaged. The vehicle was stationary. We were trying to load five people in the car. The person in the middle seat wanted to move. They could not remove the seat belt. We had to stretch the seat belt and have them climb out of the locked seat belt. Obviously if this had been an emergency situation, the occupant would have been trapped in the seat belt. |
