This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2003 Volkswagen Eurovan. The contact noticed that the rear, middle seat belt buckle had broken into several pieces. In addition, the rear drivers seat belt would not connect to the base buckle housing. The manufacturer was contacted but would provide no assistance. The current and failure mileages were 150000.
The passenger seat belt locks up and does not extend once locked up. One has to undo and reel it back in and try again to pull it out. If it makes a whirring sound as it is pulled out, it will lock up again. This has happened to two of our VW Eurovans - a 1999 and a 2003 - so I am assuming it might be a common problem.
