Description of the problem | After purchasing this vehicle in jan of 96' i had to have the back drivers side safetly seat belt replaced (under warranty). Since then i have had to have the back passenger side seat belt replaced (which was put in wrong). I will be returning to have that one fixed at their expense. But now the back drivers side passenger seat belt needs to be replaced again. These seat belts continually malfunction. Why is is necessary to replace a seat belt every three years? Before this is all over with i will have had to put in four new seat belts in a car that i have been driving only 4 1/2 years. *ak |
