Front passenger seat belt locks against the passenger and does not allow slow gentle movement in a non-crash environment. The front driver seat belt works fine and like normal. Have been to originating dealer twice to correct - no change in operation. Safety defect as crushing load causes passenger to hold belt physically out when seated or otherwise defeating belting arrangement.
