Consumer Description

MY DRIVERS REAR SEATBELT KEEPS COMING APART HAVE HAD IT CHANGED SIX TIMES INSIDE OSF TWO YEARS AND AM NOW FIGHTING TO GET IT WARENTED AS A SAFTEY DEFECT BECAUSE I HAVE NOW REACHED 60,000 MILES. I WANT THIS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS I AM AWARE OF THE FACT THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS WITH SAME ISSUE. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE FOR CHILDREN. DEALER SAYS CAR SEAT BUT I SWEAR TO ANYONE THERE IS NO CAR SEAT ON THAT SIDE OF CAR EVEN IF THERE WAS CAR SEAT BELTS ARE SUPPOSED TO HOLD WITH OUT THE WEBBING FRAYING.
