Seat belt won't latch or retract by model year
What owners say
A few weeks ago I had to brake really hard when stopping and I noticed that my seat belt didn't lock. I have tested the seat belts a few times since then and both the driver and passenger seat belts did not lock any of the times.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 hyundai elantra. The contact stated that the driver's seat belt failed to retract and lock into position. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 66,000.
Driver door when it is unlocking we cannot open it from the outside. The rear passenger door does not open at all. It hasn't opened in a few months. I don't use the back of the car being as it's just me and my husband. Today we took my in-laws to the store and my father in law couldn't buckle because the thing that holds the seat belt was locked downward and would not latch.
There is a problem with my 2017 elantra the dealership cannot diagnose or repair. The front passenger seatbelt alarm and warning light is often enabled when no one or nothing is in the seat. The only way to disable the alarm is to buckle the seatbelt. I am very concerned about this because the seatbelt may fail when it is needed. I am not happy knowing there is a problem with the car the dealership cannot repair. I don't feel safe in the car because I am not confidant the seatbelts are properly working. #elantraghostrider #hyundaighostrider
