THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2003. THE REPAIR SHOP SAID THAT IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, BUT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN, ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURER.

THE SEAT BELTS WILL NOT RETRACT, CAUSING THE SEAT BELTS TO GET CAUGHT IN THE DOOR. THIS PROBLEM EXISTED SINCE THE CONTACT PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. *AK
