We have had 2 seatbelts in this vehicle fail. The drivers seat belt would not pull out all of the way and was replaced under warranty. The rear left (drivers side) seatbelt has now failed in a similar way. The belt is stuck retracted and will not pull out. The part is back ordered with no estimate of availability. I have never had a seatbelt fail and to have 2 fail on the same vehicle raises concerns.

I have a 2018 Ford Edge that radiator fluid has leaked into the cylinder causing the vehicle to malfunction. Ford knows about this problem and refuses to do a recall. Also, I have a seatbelt that hasn’t worked in years and needs replacement. I contacted Ford years ago and have been told repeatedly that it’s on back order.

Driver seatbelt retractor sticks and strap will not come out only in situations where car heats up. After car cools down while in shade A/C or overnight it works. Having no seat belt causes a safety problem and a legal issue with mandatory seat belt use. Dealer in Ellijay Ronnie Thompson Ford confirmed the issue but said we would have to pay for problem-. This is a Ford Edge problem I have seen from other posts on line. Problem started about 3 months ago. This happened with no warning.

The seat belt on the driver's side front keeps getting locked up and won't release. I have to mess with the seat belt height adjuster to get it to work and sometimes it just doesn't which then makes my seat belt alert light and beep go off every few minutes. It's also against the law to go without my seat belt which is definitely an issue. I haven't even had this car for a year and I have not had any accidents nor did the car report I got when I purchased it state that there were any accidents on it.
