Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The seat belt on this car has a bar that goes across the buckle. this bar is loose. if twisted in a vertical position it comes off the bracket. it is not a one piece unit like other belts. it is possible that many people have been injured because the bar can fall out an give no restraint. i have spoken to a chevrolet dealer but they know nothing about this problem.*ak
