2024 Hyundai Tucson Seat Belts Problems

The rear seatbelt twists and jams when fully extended to secure a car seat or child in a booster seat. When we took the new car (less than a week after purchasing it)to the dealership to repair the jammed seatbelt, the gentleman in the service department stated that he sees this quite often and that you have to be careful when extending to seatbelt fully to prevent it from twisting and jamming.

Due to the design of the middle seat belt receiver it is impossible to install any type of car seat using the seat belt. The receiver is so long, you cannot get the seat belt tight enough to prevent movement of the car seat. There are no anchors for the middle seat either to use the latch system instead of the seatbelt, and anchors cannot be borrowed from the other sides as per the owners manual. Furthermore when a passenger sits in the middle seat, the receiver is on their lap, not down by their hip. This is not only uncomfortable, but I feel like the seat belt is not worn properly. One week after leasing the vehicle I went back to the dealership and was told there was nothing they could do about it. No help was offered. I reached out to Hyundai on my own.
