Seat Belt Defects
Seat belts that are improperly designed, manufactured, or installed may fail in the event of a car accident and cause serious, life-threatening injuries.
Common types of seat belt defects include:
- Inertial unlatching: The force of the accident is stronger than the seat belt latch, causing it to become unbuckled
- False latching: The buckle appears to be latched when in reality it is not
- Faulty retractors: The retractor fails to hold the belt snugly against the body, leaving too much slack
- Webbing failure: The fabric of the belt becomes torn or ripped and fails to protect the user during a collision
Seat belts are supposed to be life-saving devices, but did you know that there have been more than 1,000 seat belt recalls since 1996? These recalls have been issued over a number of failures caused by errors during the design or manufacture of the product.
