Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1 - seat belt - gets stuck , causing it to be inoperable and floppy. the plastic guide allows the webbing belt to get stuck in it. 2 - i cannot buy replace the belt , an important , common , inexpensive item , from anyone, but the dealer $200 + $100 labor. i can purchase lap belt for $15, but that is not good enough and does not fix the problem. good design for the manufacturer , cheap because rightwas same as left , but poor design for me as it casused belt to be worn and get stuck . car was 2005, but has 65000 so no more warranty . -maybe there should be for all car makers , extended warranty for certain items that wear out over time , safety items like seat belts , that wear out over time , 36 months 3 years , mostly due to poor design . *ak
