What is the deal with the the seat belt receptacles that slip thru the holes in the seat and are hard to pull up and hold up when one is inserting the male end of the belt into it. Most cars have a vinyl boot over the belt that prevents them from receding into the seat when buckling up. Everyone that gets in my car has one heck of a time belting up. When unbuckling, they push on the red button to release the belt and basiccaly push the female part down into the hole when it releases...ssssch Has anyone seen a solution for this issue? Did not see any by using the search engine.
There is a space in the seat for them. When not in use, they can go there. I have never seen a boot over a belt... Perhaps you are used to domestic cars?
Yep - there is a hole in the seat for them, and they stick up about an inch over the hole, barely enough to get your fingers around to hold it so it doesn't get pushed into the dreaded hole. And yes, I was comparing it to my 15yr old Lincoln rear seats which is a domestic - however, seats are seats - no matter where they are sold from.
Fords have loops, and many domestic cars do. I have never had a foreign car with loops, sheaths, or boots. Seats in vehicle A are not like seats in vehicle B at all. These little design things set apart different makers. GM's headlight switch is on the dash, not the steerwheel stalk. Toyota's lock/unlock has been in opposite shading to all domestic cars for decades. The no loops on the seats and having a way to get rid of the buckle all together is a design choice they made and have stuck with because some people prefer it. You do not.
Never had an issue - and I regularly ferry (what is the current PC phrase?) special needs children and adults in the back seat. None of them have ever made the belts disappear - or had any problem using the belts. They would be quite vocal about any problems, too.
Wow! I had an issue with your title. "Rear seat female receptacle" brought an entirely different image to mind!
