| Seat Belt problems |
May 19 2025 my wife went to a local bakery to get some bread, when she put the vehicle in parking a loud bang in her left side was heard she describe it as a gunshot noise, also burning smell as fireworks, the seatbealt retracted hurting her chest and part of the neck, she did not knew what was happening and was confused at the same time in pain she felt like she was choking or out of air, she managed to unbuckle her seatbelt and called me crying because of this whole nightmare, her chest and neck are bruised and in pain, thanks to god my two kids where with me at the time, know we are afraid of even starting the SUV thinking this could happen again with one of the other 3 searbelts in each door affecting or hurting one of our children or a passenger, we have not gotten any notification of a recall for our vehicle from Ford motor company regarding this issue, we only knew there was a recall for this once I started to look into what happen by searching online, 24s06 recall its says it was issue a month ago by Ford, really scare to keep using this vehicle, if you have one beware you can get hurt or even killed if these happens while you are driving and thanks to god this did not happen while driving.
The passenger side seatbelt will not retract or move (locked in position that will not allow the passenger to buckle the belt).
