When buckling my 5 year old son into his booster seat, the rear seatbelt always becomes wedged in a cavity of the rear seat. This also occurs if my son moves while we are in transit. This causes the seatbelt to fail to retract properly and thus he is not properly secured.

Component or System Involved: The rear passenger-side seatbelt (right side from the driver’s view) on my 2017 Chevy Volt Premier malfunctioned. Specifically, the automatic locking retractor (ALR) mechanism failed and would not release tension, even after fully retracting the strap. The cut portion of the seatbelt is still in my possession and can be made available for inspection upon request.

Exact same problem as current 2018 chevrolet volt recall. Both outboard rear seatbelts fail to lock in a way that a carseat can be installed. This problem was discovered while trying to install a car seat for the first time.
