Ford Escape: Safety belt extension assembly
If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, a safety belt extension assembly can be obtained from an authorized dealer.
Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the safety belt. Manufacturer identification is located at the end of the webbing on the label. Also, use the safety belt extension only if the safety belt is too short for you when fully extended.
WARNING: Do not use extensions to change the fit of the shoulder belt across the torso.
