My 8-year old daughter was sitting on rear passenger size seat on a booster seat with seat belt on. She first played with my son who was sitting on a read driver seat on a car seat. Then she fell asleep. In this process the seat belt some how got wrapped around her. When we stopped for a bathroom break we unbuckled the belt to find out that the belt was wrapped around here and we could not unwrap it. The more we tried to pull out the more tighter it got. She was in severe pain. We had to borrow a scissor from the gas station to cut the belt.see the pic with the scar. She was in pain for next few days. We took the car to dealer and they said that belt worked as designed. The child lock kicked in and the lock wont release until the belt goes all the way in. Belt could not go all the way in because it was wrapped around her. There should have been some manual button/switch to release the belt.
