problem #1

Dec 202012

XC70

  • 2,000 miles
Seat belt won't release consistently. Pressing the release button in feels "mushy" and there is no release click. I had the release replaced, but same issue. Later models (2014) worked crisply. I asked if they could install a later model release in my car, but told that is "illegal". worried I might have trouble exiting the car in an accident.
