NHTSA complaint #511619 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACTUAL FAILURE OF THE DRIVER SEAT, PER SE. THE PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT IS THAT IT IS SITTING TOO HIGH TO COMFORTABLY REACH THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE. I'M FIVE FOOT NINE INCHES TALL AND THE HEAL OF MY FOOT DOES NOT REST ON THE FLOORBOARD WHILE I'M OPERATING THE GAS PEDAL OR BRAKE. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE FOR VERY LONG WITHOUT MY FOOT FALLING ASLEEP DUE THO THE BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION FROM THE EDGE OF THE SEAT BEING FORCED INTO THE BACK OF MY LEG. I DO NOT THINK THE "H" POINTS FOR SEATS ARE BEING ADHERED TO FOR THE CONVERSION PACKAGE SEATS. THE CONVERSION COMPANY, BY THE WAY IS D'ELEGANT INC. 11847 SHAVER ROAD SCHOOLCRAFT, MI. 49087. ANOTHER CONCERN ABOUT THE SEATS (DRIVER AND FRONT PASS) IS THAT THE ARM REST BLOCKS THE SEAT BELT LATCH. THIS WILL MAKE IT VERY HARD TO ACCESS AND UNLATCH THE SEATBELT IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. BECAUSE OF THIS, I VERY SELDOME USE THE SEATBELT.
