What 1993 Chevrolet Astro owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Female portion of rear seat belt buckle (for shoulder harness) sticks up too far. Owner is having problems finding toddler child seats that will buckle properly in vehicle. Owner used to use center lap belt. Now has three children and needs to use one of the shoulder belts.
Driver's side seatbelt will not pull out far enough to buckle. *ak
The safety restraint system (seat belts) in the rear seats have a long plastic sleve on the female end, this plastic sleve does not allow proper tightening for a infant and young child safety seat, in order to properly tighten a child seat down you have to cut the plastic sleve off and then twist the female receptical as many times as you can to create a "shorter" end so that long female receptical will be down in the groove of the seat far enough so that the belt can be pulled tight and the receptical will not hinge on the child seat installation holes. (this is really hard to explain in words, please call or contact me for a better verbal explanation.
Driver's seat belt is too short, difficult to use when wearing a heavy coat / and over weight.
Female part of lap belt in bench seat is too long causing it to be hazardous. Not only is the belt over the rib cage but the hard piece of the belt is in the wrong place causing discomfort in normal driving. On an adult, it also fits wrong, it is so long it still allows the belt to come over high hip area. In a quick stop this could cause injury. Please inform me if anything comes up to get this fixed!!!
Consumer received a recall notice concerning seat belts, had work done under recall, vehicle continues to have same problems as before recall repairs, consumer wants recall work to be done again.
Rear seat belts failed to hold passengers in position when hit from behind, causing injury.
Seat belts replaced under recall due to being too short.
Female portion of seat belt buckle sticks up too far. Owner is having problems assembling child seats in vehicle. Please describe details. Tt
