The rear center seat is supposed to be the safest place for a child. Unfortunatly that is not the case when the rear center seat belt fails. Thankfully this incident happened when our car was safely parked in our driveway. My husband had noticed the car seat was loose (which in itself is a dangerous situation created by this inproperly functioning seatbelt buckle) & he tried to tighten the belt. The buckle fell to pieces all over my back seat. It is going to cost me nearly $100 to repair this faulty seatbelt. A small price for keeping my son safe (until this breaks as well) . . . . But this is going to cost Ford even more if some unsuspecting family is injured by the very device that claims to save lives.

Passanger seat restraint locks when a large person is in the seat. Everytime the belt reals in a bit it stays locked, resulting in a very tight and uncomfortable ride. Replacement of the seat belt some months ago resolved the issue for a while, however the problem has re-emerged, and the dealer refused to replace the unit again. It seems to be unsafe riding in a car with the shoulder belt so tight that movement is impossable. The dealer stated that due to my fat stature the seat belt is mal functioning, but when normal sized people are in the seat the restraint functions properly.
