Rear seat belt does not fasten properly when a cosmetic door becomes jammed in the mechanism. Seat belt was rendered unusable and could effect passenger and driver side rear seats. Design flaw expected, no abuse to components and brand new vehicle. It does not matter if the vehicle was moving or not- the seatbelts failed to work (fasten). In the attached pictures you can see my finger pushing on the door that became jammed- in the other picture you can see the door was removed by the dealer after it failed (causing the seatbelt to no longer function).
