Seatbelt does not function properly, leaving slack in the belt so it does not hold driver in case of crash. *tr | |||

The seat belt system in my 1996 mitsubishi 3000gt vr-4 does not function properly. the belts do not return to their retracted state after use. moreover, using the seat belt is difficult because of the over-the-shoulder loop the belt passes thru causes the belt to be tied up.*jb | |||

Normal everyday usage of seat belts. the front seat belts do not work any more they pull out but do not retract back. mitsubishi says to wipe the belt down with a damp cloth then dry off to remove dirt. this does not work now my front seatbelts do not work at all they stay fully extended and will not retract to provide any restraint in the event of an accident or any restraint at all for that matter. (related vehicle information: model year=1996, make=mitsubishi, model=3000gt). *tr | |||

I have a 96 mitsubishi 3000gt and my front seat belts do not retract after being put on or taken off. if i were to get into an accident they would do very little to protect me. i tried to see if mitsubishi would fix the problem but they said they are not covered under warranty. just figured i would let some one know of this problem with the mitsubishi seat belts. *jb | |||

I own a 1996 mitsubishi 3000gt that has had both front seatbelts fail to operate correctly. i have replaced these belt twice now and the problem seems to come back after a few months. i feel this is a defect in the product that needs to be addressed by the manufacturer as a recall. this is a serious safety defect. | |||

The driver and passenger seat belts do not retract fully and do not lock in place. i feel this is very unsafe if an accident were to occur. the seat belt is only functional as a waist harness, because this renders the shoulder harness useless. *nm | |||

The driver side seat belt on my 1996 mitsubishi 3000gt vr-4 has problems retracting. if i lean forward, it won't automatically retract to pick up the slack. this has been happening ever since i purchased the car in may 2003. since the belt won't automatically retract, i have to physically pull it out, then let it go for it to take in all the slack. the problem hasn't been fixed because mitsubishi doesn't think it is a problem. if it fails during an accident, my death could result. *nm | |||
