1 Front Seat Belt Buckle Assembly problem

Failure Date: 04/29/2004

There has been no incident yet, but the driver side seat belt is coming apart and is so twisted as to be unsafe. The red button in the center of the buckle is coming out of the casing. I am concerned for my family's safety.

2 Front Seat Belt Buckle Assembly problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2004

Almost every time I go to put my children in their car-seats the safety belts have been released from the children wiggling to get into their car-seats. We make a big issue of our children being properly installed intheir car-seats. We have read all the user manuals and even taken classes to insure we are installing them properly. None of this does us any good when the seat-belts release so easily. I have problems with this almost daily. Will it take one of my family being injured or even killed before there will be something done. This has happend more times than I could even count.
