Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Normally when you trying to exit the car driver opens the door and the shoulder belt moves forward to let you exit. the problem that i am reporting is that instead of the belt moving forward it moves back toward the driver' or passanger, securing them with extra force to the point you are unable to move. this problem occurs only 5 or 6 times a year. when it happens, the only way i have found to bypass it is to reclose the door and restart the engine and then reopen the door. i have tried to disconnect the belt from the upper clip to relieve the pressure on my chest and then go through the restarting process. i reported this problem early on to the dealer. but naturally i could not demonstrate it to them, and they could not make it happened. so i have learned to live with it. i am reporting this because it may be happening to other people, and in my opinion it could be a serious safety problem under the right circumstances. *ak
