1997 Kia Sephia seat belts complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 20 of 20, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Engine check light is on/leaking motor oil/ power steering binding, and front and rear seat belts do not retract.
Door seal failed.
While driving down a road and driver moved just little, the seat belt became unlatched on both seat driver's and passenger's sides. Contacted dealer.
Driver's seat belt buckle does not latch on properly,and unbuckles unexpectedly when moving around, which wont protect the occupant in event of a crash. Please provide further information and VIN#.
The accident in which the seat belt failed did not result in any damage to the rear bumper. However, even at this low speed the belt latch failed to hold my wife in place, resulting in her whiplash. At many times the latch seems to be properly latched, but with only slight pressure such as adjusting your seating position the belt will unexpectedly come undone.
Rotors failed several times.
The shoulder belt on the front passenger's side is so tight that it causes pain and discomfort to the passenger. The seat belt has been replaced by the dealer.
Noise in the engine due to failure of the lifters.
Dual air bags did not deploy and front and rear passnger's seat belt assembly did not restrain, allowing driver's chest to impact steering and css to be thrown forward. Injuries: back, neck.head and concussions from css straps.
