Eight problems related to seat belt have been reported for the 1999 Toyota Camry. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Front passenger seatbelt does not latch.
I turned on rear defrost and within few seconds back seat was on fire. Window burnt seat and seat belt also burned hand. It appears to have been a possible electrical cause. I figured a fuse would blow prior to a fire inside car. Had I been on fwy I would have not been lucky gas tank is inches below fire .
I was at a standstill and rearended by another driver going aproximately 50 mph and he did not brake. The seat belt did not engage nor did the airbags. Both cars totaled. Trunk hood popped, also rear panels bent. I sustained a head injury either on windshield or steering wheel . My firm belief is the seatbelt should have engaged and avoided the head injury.
