Front Seat Belt problem #1

I have a 2002 Camaro convertible which is still under new vehicle warranty that has a driver?s side seat belt that will not retract when exiting the car. Yesterday I met with gm?s factory rep who examined the car and insists that the belts operate normal. Even though this belt ?may? engage properly in the event of a collision, the fact that it does not retract is a deterrent to using it. The driver always has to reach around to find the buckle in a different location. How many drivers with Camaros are deterred from using their seat belts because of this condition? how many injuries and deaths have occurred because people don?t wear their seat belts because of this deterrent condition? regards, joe zoltak, 414 pine dr n, surfside beach, SC 29575, 843-828-8490.
