Seat belt location

[NewTekBuzz]

Does anyone else have an issue with the seat belt being right over the recline lever? I also find the shoulder strap really low and pulling on my shoulder all the time, I didn't see a way to adjust it up or down. Small issues really, just wonder if I'm the only one.

I agree, I'm not too crazy about where it sits. I got a shit back so I lean my seat further back than most people, and even when using the strap on the side of the seat it still digs in to my neck alot. Worth the trouble, lol, just a slight annoyance.

I'm 6' 3" tall and the belt digs into my neck too.. I bought one of those sheepskin pads to put on mine.. It helps make it less annoying

Seatbelt feels like it cutting me up. For now I put the seat belt under my arm

I thought the stitching on my rear bottom seat was coming apart. Underneath are the car seat anchors

Sound like a common problem with anyone around 6'+

My 2008 GT does the same thing and my solution was a seat beat extender. This moves the shoulder harness away from your neck a little bit and it really helps. When I test drove a 2015 I noticed the same issue with the belt digging into my neck. I think the extender was around $20 online, local auto parts did not have the extender type that has a buckle.

I'm 5'11" and had the same problem, but it was because of the retention strap. I "unbuttoned" it about a week after getting the car and it's much less irritating.

Mine was too close on my throat and neck. It wasn't until I watched a video where the seat belt passes through the little snaps at the side of the seat that it fixed my issue completey. Now its across my shoulder instead my my neck.

Did that and cuts into my neck more. I lift my shirt up so the belt lands on it. Now wearing a tank top I pass it under my arm

I was going to make a thread about this too. I'm 6'1 and the seatbelt digs into my neck and irritates the crap out of me, even with it run through the strap. When I wear collared shirts I can lift my collar up and let the seatbelt run under it and that helps, but when I'm wearing a t-shirt I'm constantly pulling the belt down to keep it off my neck. It's a horrible design.

I must have my seat up higher than some of you taller guys, it never rubs my neck. I'm also not that tall at 5'8, so I'm sure my seat is at least 3 inches higher than yours.

these seat belts work great when needed and mine stay tight, at least my replaced 1 does
