YOU PUT THE SEATBELT/SHOULDER HARNESS ON AND 90% OF THE TIME IT WILL LOCK TIGHT WITH OUT YOU JERKING ON IT TO SIMULATE AN ACCIDENT. IN AN ACCIDENT I'M CONCERNED IT COULD CAUSE NECK AND/OR CHEST INJURIES. THIS CAN HAPPEN EVEN IF YOU GENTLY PULL IT OUT. YOU CAN PUT IT ON BUT IT THEN GETS TIGHTER AND TIGHTER. YOU CAN ACTUALLY HEAR IT CLICKING INTO PLACE. *TR

REAR SEATBELTS DO NOT PROPERLY RESTRAIN CHILDREN, WHEN EVER A CHILD MOVES AROUND BELT LOOSENS UP, AND WILL NOT TIGHTEN BACK UP.*AK

REAR SEAT BELTS WILL NOT REMAIN "SNUG". BELT ASSEMBLY WILL FULLY LOOSEN AND WILL NOT PROTECT CHILDREN IN CASE OF ACCIDENT.
