Consumer Description

MY DRIVERS SIDE SEATBELT HAS STARTED TO RANDOMLY UNBUCKLE. THERE ISN'T ANYTHING TOUCHING IT, PRESSING IT OR OTHERWISE INTERFERING WITH THE OPERATION. I FIRMLY PRESS THE BUCKLE INTO THE RECEPTACLE, PULL ON IT TO ENSURE IT IS LATCHED AND RANDOMLY IT WILL COME UNDONE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE ISN'T A RECALL OR WARRANTY TO COVER IT SO I HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW RECEPTACLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED GOING AS SLOW AS 5MPH AND AS FAST AS 50MPH AND IS QUITE STARTLING AS THE SEATBELT INSTANTLY STARTS TO REWIND. I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY TRUCK KNOWING THE SEATBELT MIGHT NOT HOLD IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO HAPPEN. *TR
