I received notice of the defect and contacted my dealer immediately. The rear seat belts are defective in my car. Due to the the seat belt webbing becoming jammed in the retactor, the dealer states they will have to do extra work in order to make the repair. They stated they will charge me $75 an hour for the repair. I strongly disagree with being charged an amount of money to correct a problem that occurred due to the manufacturers defect. Please let me know your thoughts regarding the fee I am to be charged, (my car will be at the dealer 10-11-00) & if you feel charging the consumer a fee to repair their defect is reasonable. Please let me know how tp proceed. Sincerely, ann kerley

The day we picked the car up one of the belts failed. Then again several weeks later. The dealer eventually replaced the right rear belt assembly. Now the left rear has jammed for the second time. This is a serious safety issue (I have four step children) and I am aware that you are investigating. You need to speed this up before a child is injured or killed. There must be a recall right away! doesn't the manufacturer have to replace safety equipment without charge?

1. rear seat belt sometimes locks and won't pull out 2. anti-lock brakes make loud ratcheting noise and temporarily activate upon starting car, causing what feels like a temporary lack of braking - dealer has not attempted to fix saying it is normal. 3. intermediate steering shaft has failed twice causing noticible "clunking" noise - dealer has replaced twice under warranty, who will pay the next time? 4. left rear window sometimes fails to operate.
