Recently reported SEAT BELTS problems on 1999 Chevrolet Suburban 1500

The sealtbelt restraint locking system is faulty and this had to have been known during and after vehicle production .the seatbelts with passengers trrdtraunef travels to far forward which would end up in death or very bad head and neck injuries because the seatbelts do not lock when brakes are applied hard or forward momentum is stopped very suddenly! i have tried to cause a lock action by pulling on seatbelts very quickly and forcefully with vehicle sitting parked and also while driving to slam the brakes to cause a fast lock on seatbelts and no affect was apparent to safely restrain adultsadults,children,or even newborns in the car seatseat.this is unsafe and with airbag system in the front driver and passenger side this will lead to death in the event of a crash!

Seabelts on this model seem to not work as they should. in the event of a collision, or a quick stop seatbelts don't stop the passengers in vehicle until seat belt is fully extended. all other vehicles that i own work fine and locking mechanism for seatbelts work as designed. these seabelts on this chevrolet suburban are not performing as required and the locking mechanism seems to be faulty. currently there is a recall for this model/vin # vehicle but it only convers the passenger restraint system in regards to the neck extension. my concern is that all seatbelts on this vehicle could be faulty too and could injure all passangers in a collision. request to have manufacture do a one time inspection on seatbelts to determine if indeed locking mechanisms on these models are faulty at not cost to the comsumer.
