2016 Ford Edge Seat Belts Problems

This is the second time the driver seatbelt has locked itself and won't extend. The fix is to remove the seatbelt and send it in for repair. This seems serious as it forces me to drive without a seatbelt.

Both rear seat belts are retracted and locked making them inoperable. This has been an issue with this car since 20,000 Miles. The rear right passenger seat belt was the first to fail and was repaired by ford dealership taking over 12 months just to get new part from Ford. Less than 10,000 miles later seat belt failed. Approximately 6,000 miles after the right rear seat belt failed the driver side rear seat belt has failed. Down to only rear center seat belt working.

Seat belt assembly. Pretensionor stuck in locked position and seat belt will not retract or expand. Yes safety is at risk. Seat belt is no longer usable and hapend when I was not at home. My child was unable to be properly restrained. Inspected by mechanic . The seat belt on the rear driver side is about to fail as well per mechanic. This is a known issue but was not recalled on my vehicle.

I have a 2016 Ford Edge. Bought my car 2018. I Have never used the back seat driver side seat belt only a few times. When I switched my daughter out of her car seat(who was born the year I got my car) I had no need for the seat belt. Until now when I switched her to her booster seat. Now the seat belt lap strap is locked and not able to come out. There for I can't use that seat at all. And have to put her in the middle. My son is too tall to sit in the middle seat. But too young to sit in the front. I took my car into the dealership and called a different dealership and they said the seat belt may be an aftermarket. They had never seen one that has the airbags in them. So we need to order you just a normal seat belt, and it's on back order. So now I have to wait [XXX] only knows how long.
