When pulled out manually, the seat belt folds over upon itself when passing through the shoulder loop and the belt jams and stops moving. Therefore, the shoulder/lap belt can not be latched into the buckle. I have called Mazda motors usa at irvine ca at 800-222-5500 to inform them of the problem. They refuse to take any action to solve the problem which I believe is caused by either making the belt too thin (which causes it to fold over on itself when passing through the loop) or the configuration of the plastic shoulder loop slot itself (which is not the proper sized opening) is not correctly sized to allow the belt material to pass smoothly and unhindered through the plastic shoulder loop. This failure of the manual belt mechanism to pass through the shoulder loop may cause the driver not to buckle up the safety belt. This can potentially cause the death of the occupant in the event of a vehicle collision. You are hereby notified of this potentially deadly safety issue with regard to safety belts.
