    Passenger side seat belt has always been slow to retract. Now it will not release at all. Dealer refuses to fix or replace as a defect. Will charge over $500 to fix. The vehicle has never been in an accident, has been taken care of, and has not been abused as the car has less than 83k miles. I thought seat belts were guaranteed for the life a vehicle! *tr

It was fixed for approximately a week. It is now unusable again. From my search on this issue there seems to be a lot of complaints about it. Why should i pay for a new assembly for something that occurs frequently with similar cars and…
