Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Seat belts

1 report
“Two different times, while stopped at a traffic light, suddenly and without cause the seat belt tensioners in the front seats activated until we released the buckles. They violently retracted into our bodies, causing chest pain and for me, a female, left breast pain. The first time was 09/15/2022. The second time was 04/22/2023. The current software is version 2.7. For the first time, the version was 2.2. To be clear, we weren't moving at all, nor was the car in line in front of us. We notified Volvo after the first time and will do so again now.”
