Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THIS CAR NOV. 2015. (CAR WAS STATIONARY) I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH SEAT BELT UNTIL I TRIED PUT MY GRAND CHILD IN MIDDLE BACK SEAT AND NOTICED THE SEAT BELT WAS STUCK AND WAS NOT USABLE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, AND READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ON SAME ISSUE, IT TURNS OUT THEIR IS A PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT BELT RETRACTOR. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL AS A LAW THAT ALL MUST WEAR THEM. WHEN WE TOOK THE CAR TO DEALER THE TO FIX 2 OTHER RECALL ISSUES THEY SAID IT WOULD COST AT LEAST $500 TO FIX THE SEAT BELT ISSUE AND THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN! I STRONGLY FEEL SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IT'S THE COMPANY'S RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE!
