Consumer Description

WE WHERE DRIVING BACK FROM A FAMILY FUNCTION AND WHEN WE GOT HOME, THE SEATBELT WOULD NOT RETRACT BACK IN. WE HAD BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE SEATBELTS LOCKING FOR AWHILE BUT THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THE BELT DID NOT RETRACT. I CALL THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $800.00 SO I DID NOT GET IT FIXED BECAUSE I COULD NOT AFFORD IT. THE SECOND SEATBELT WENT OUT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING AT ABOUT 65MPH AND WERE AT ABOUT 100,000 MILES. THE SEATBELT LOCKED SO WE REMOVED IT TO RESET IT AND HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND THEN IT STOPPED WORKING. THE THIRD REAR BELT WAS A HARD TIME RETRACTING AS WELL. THE DEALER TESTED IT AND IT ALSO FAILED THEIR TESTS. THE DEALER NOW SAYS THAT THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE EVEN THOUGH THIS IS NOT MECHANICAL FAILURE AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MILEAGE. THIS HAS BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PUT A DIME INTO THIS REPAIR.
