Seat Belt "Cutting" into my neck!

Anyone else have this problem? I'm about 6'-1" and 225 Lbs. I've tried every adjustment for the seat, but my seat belt keeps finding it's way to digging into the left side of my neck! Anyone have this happen and if so, what was your solution? Thanks!

No, I didn't realize they offered it. I purchased the car used in April. I'll see what I can find, thanks for the tip!

Is the extender rigid, fixed or adjustable? Any pics?

I didn't know either. I'm 5'10' and it's an issue. I wondered why they didn't build it into the seat.

The seat extender doesn't work unless you're a LARGE person. I recommend getting the padded sleeves that go over the belt and make them more comfortable.

The rubbing on the neck has always bothered me so this is a product I use in my cars:

My wife has the same problem with the seat belt cutting into her neck. This is the product we've used to eliminate the problem. Works great.
