I have contacted you on this matter before and I have just talked to Ford regarding the seatbelt issue and was told that they cant make an independent dealer stand by a warranty I believe seatbelts are a safety issue my seatbelt doesn't retract it has locked on me after I have gotten it back and I couldn't put it on for almost a block when it finally released so I could put it on , it also doesn't lock when I jerk it forward while driving. My worry is if we were to get in an accident and my seatbelt doesn't lock I would still hit the windshield to me that is a safety concern and Ford should stand by their lifetime safety warranty. I am the passenger and the seatbelt on the driver side is just starting to act up on occasion.

When I start the car initially I can't turn the wheel of the car. I have to tug on it to get it to turn eventually. I'm afraid that I'll be driving in the power steering will go out. Also have been having troubles with the transmission slipping. They say my car has too many miles to qualify for the clutch recall that Ford has put out. I don't see what this has to do with a malfunction saying I've had troubles with it since I bought this car. Both of these issues are safety issues. I have no money to replace this stuff. So I don't understand why Ford won't work with people on this there needs to be a recall on the steering as I seen many others complaining about it. And they need to suck it up and take the expenditure of replacing all of these crutches that they have a recall on regardless of mileage. Sometimes my seatbelt comes loose after I clicked it. I have to latch it while trying to drive. I'm tired of this car. I'll never buy from Ford again. I've been having problems with this car since I bought it. And have informed the dealership that we bought it from and they clean there is nothing wrong with it period after taking it too but it's going to cost me $3,000.

Nor do they care about the safety of me and my family or the other people around me ! I have never been so disappointed. I truly loved this little car until it tried to kill me.
