The cable attaching the seatbelt is frayed and only being held on by a few strands of cable. My research into the problem on forums and the internet has shown that this is an issue on the drivers side seatbelt for smart car.
The car won't charge over 20% due probably a faulty manufacturer part of n83 high voltage control box. This could cause very serious electrical/battery issues if the high voltage box is faulty.
The contact owns a 2015 smart fortwo. The contact stated while buckling the seat belt, he became aware that a metal cable through the eyelet bolted to the frame by the door jamb on the driver's side had started to fray. The contact stated that the vehicle was not driven frequently and felt that there could not be a wear and tear issue. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer. The vehicle had not been diagnosed and had not been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.
The car just shuts off while i am driving. I can tell now when it is about to shut off. I have had this problem since i purchased the car in 2016. I have taken the car to the dealership and called mercedes benz several times and they will not do anything. I will die because the car is getting worse and shuts off more frequently now. Can you get mercedes benz to help me? They told me that they don't care if i die due to a bad product they sold me. Please help. Please, i am begging you i do not want to hurt someone else due to this bad car.

The brake booster malfunctioned while i was driving
Driver’s seatbelt broke at the tensioner as if the cable had been cut with wire cutters. My vehicle has not been involved in a wreck. Under normal driving conditions. Safety issue is if it broke this easily what would’ve happened if i had been involved in an accident? Of course i took the vehicle immediately to a repair shop and the cost to repair is $843. 31. Of course the parts have to be ordered. This is a safety issue it’s a law issue you have to have a seatbelt it’s not like i can’t live without the seatbelt. All my research shows that several people have complained about the same incident happening to them i was not driving the vehicle at the time i had just stopped at a store got back in my car and the seatbelt was broken.
The drivers side seatbelt connecting floor (i think it's the belt force limiter) has a cable that has broken off. This is the 2nd time this has happened to my smartcar. It is a design flaw because the cable runs against the metal of the seat cutting thru the cable. It isn't usually noticed until it breaks off making the seatbelt complete become broken from the floor. Additionally, smartcars including this one have a known issue where airbags become i op (light on) due to connection issue under seat. So now i have no restraints in my car.
Since purchasing the car the power steering has been bad. The dealership where i purchased the car and mercedes refused to fix the issue. There is electrical issues and the gas tank gauge and gas tank have been replaced 3 times. Please do not purchase a smart car thecmakers do not stand behind their product. I took it to mercedes hampton va auto mall and they are so rude. I have almost died 4 times due to bot bring able to turn steering wheel.
