What 1994 Mitsubishi 3000GT owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Seat belt in my 1994 mitsubishi 3000gt do not function. I had them checked out and the mechanic said that it was notoriously common on these to have bad non-operational seat belts. If it is notoriously common why has mitsubishi not taken care of the problem? I am just concerned that the belts I am getting installed will do the same thing, they are of the same manufacturer, so says the dealership. Right now my belts are only used for show until the new belts come in. Law says you need to wear a seatbelt, but mine will not do its job if I do get in a wreck.
The seatbelts do not function properly. When the seatbelt is pulled on it does not retract, leaving enough slack in the belt that if an accident were to occur, it would not serve its purpose as a safety restraint.
My front seat belts in my car no longer retract. They won't tighten up against me and probably wouldn't hold me too well if I was in an accident. The car is a 94 mitsubishi 3000gt vr-4.
Seat belt comes out but doesn't retract to become tight on the driver. Then, doesn't retract back to get out of the way, it goes across the driver in a sloppy loose manner.
Front seat belts do not retract after the seat is returned from the forward position. Also, they do not retract if too much slack is pulled when buckling the belt. The slack has to be fed back into the tensioner to make the seatbelt fit tight in order to be effective during a crash.
Seat belt failure on 1994 mitsubishi 3000gt. Does not retract automatically and leaves loose gap when engaged, would not stop driver if in front end collision.
My 1994 3000gt seat belts when pulled out don't retract front and back seat belts, and I am not able to always manuelly push them back in.
Rear seat belts failed. They will not retract without substantial effort, and they did not catch under rapid decelleration. Both driver and passenger front seat belts frequently failed to catch under rapid deceleration. This problem persisted for several years.
During december I almost had an accident when a vehicle cut me off on the highway. I immediately pressed my brake pedal but my seat belt did not work. Later on I realized my seat belt doesn't retract when the weather is humid.
