Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The front shoulder harness seatbelt on the driver side is stuck mid-track, which causes the seatbelt to rest across your neck. During any automobile accident, this would cause the driver to be improperly restrained or not restrained at all, resulting in serious injury, even death. A call (and trip) to the dealer got me nowhere, they say i will have to pay over $500. 00 to have the seatbelt and its components repaired and/or replaced. *nlm |
