3 Front Seat Belt Anchorage problem of the 2001 Nissan Xterra

Failure Date: 08/27/2001

The center seat belt in the rear of the vehicle does not adequately accomodate a child safety seat (in the center of the vehicle). The female strap is too long and will not tighten properly. If you can get it to tighten properly, it is inside the car seat and poses a threat to the child because it is in their back. The child could lean back on it at that point and unfasten the belt. If their was an accident, the belt fastener could come through the cloth part of the car seat and injure the child.

4 Front Seat Belt Anchorage problem of the 2000 Nissan Xterra

Failure Date: 12/23/2000

Back end has gone out of control many times for no reason, on 12-23-2000 the back end went out of control and the car went into the on-coming lane which caused a accident. All 3 of our seat belts in my car released durring the accident. I was the only one with light bruises on my hips but not my shoulder, and everyone else didn't have a mark after the 100mph total impact accident. When the seat belt released, I broke the dash board with my knee, even though my seat was as far back as it could go. Right after the accident, we looked down and our seatbelts were laying next to us or retracted. The lady in the other car broke her sturnim as a result of her seat belt. I have possesion of the car and I am going to have it inspected.
