| Seat Belt problems |
2006 chevy Trailblazer spun out on snow while my daughter was driving. It went towards the left then immediately jerked around to the right and continued to gain speed as it launched us off the roadway and into a group of trees. The brake pedal wouldn't budge, the steering wheel continued to turn in circles not controlling the tires at all. The backseat broke apart before impact and was throwing my teenage son around in the back. The front seats broke loose as well and slammed both driver and passenger into the dash during impact. The seatbelts did not engage to lock into place like they are supposed to and despite full frontal damage and a SUV deemed totalled/destroyed by my insurance company, not a single airbag deployed or attempted to deploy. We were all trapped inside the vehicle down an embankment and all sustained injuries in the crash including cuts, bruises, whiplash, and my daughter had a concussion. My daughter had a vp shunt placed in her brain last year and could've easily died in this crash due to her injuries. Something needs to be done about these airbags and seatbelts not working!!.
The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer. The contact stated that the electric power panel on the drivers side door was overheating. The contact was included in recall NHTSA campaign id number: 12v406000 (electrical system, visibility). In addition, the contact indicated that the front passengers seat seatbelt was not retracting. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000.
My passenger seat belt in the front got stuck. I took the truck to the dealer to see if they could get the seat belt unlock but they couldn't. So I had no other choice but to have the dealer cut the seat belt. This was the first time this has happen and would like to know if there is a problem with the seat belts in the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazers.
Seat belt locked in place and wont release.
