Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car purchased new in 1995(may or june, too lazy to go to the car and look!) first the right rear seatbelt would not retract ,so we put the baby in the middle or left rear. the car was taken in to have some minor flaws corrected as with most new cars(a "punch" list). the seatbelt was fixed under warranty . shortly there after it did it again. as well as the left rear started doing the same thing. the right rear has never retracted since. i was able to free the left one occasionally(2 or 3) times then it permanently locked. we had to put the child's seat in the middle ; the best place for it .the dealer was contacted when the car went in for service and i was told i would have to buy new seatbelts and pay the labor to fix them. screw that! we just travelled 3 to the car or rear riding adults had no seatbelts. had another child in 1998. bought a used volvo!! end of story. thanks! hoyo (pam's husband). *ak
