Front seat belts

SSJ455 · 12-31-2015, 08:49 AM

I noticed on the 2016's there is no belt holder on the top of the seat back like the Gen 5's have. Is the belt setup different in the Gen 6 than the Gen 5? I really hate the seatbelts in mine, they are such a pain. The fastener comes apart from the strap and the belt is uncomfortable as it rubs against my neck.

They are much improved from the 5th gen. I had all the same issues with my 5th gen seat belt as you listed. Drove my 6th gen 4 hours home from Rodgers Chevrolet in Michigan to Cincinnati and hardly noticed the seat belt.

I agree, seatbelts are comfortable. I never liked those fasteners, they are a PITA.

Great idea for an aftermarket shop to make up a seat belt clip / holder that attaches or replaces the seat back release.

I also like the seat back release at the top of the seat. Much easier to get to and use. On the 5th Gen I have to push the seatback back with one had and then lift the lever. If I don't the lever never releases which is another reason I don't put anything in the back seat area.
I am liking the 6th Gen more and more. I have to keep telling myself that I want a year or two with no car payments.

These seats WILL wear out like the 4th gens! the seat belts get stuck behind the seats, and when pulled out will wear these out just like our a$$cheeks

If you don't like it rubbing on your neck just thrown on a slightly darker black turtleneck.

The seat belts are much improved. They dont need that stupid magnet anymore. Not once has my seatbelt bothered me. Im 5'9 and in the gen 5 if that magnet came undone it was pretty much choking me.

Uh, 4th gen seats were developed in the early 1990s. No comparison to the 6th gen seats.

Woodhouse misplaced them. Do you believe that? He can't do anything right, and I practically own him!

Anybody seatbelt get jammed every time they close the door aideways between the arm rest and the side of seat, mine foes it every time and this is gonna eventually tear up the leather on that srm rest. They are also far as hell back, i have turn my whole damn body around just too find the thing.

They are comftorable to me though, i dont even notice they are on.
