Passenger side seat belt, when in use, will make a clicking noise. At this point you can not move the seat belt out and if you press back into the seat the belt follows and allows no give. The belt must be released, retracted all the way in and pulled back out and rehooked. It may work or you may have to repeat the procedure until it does work. After getting it working in a normal way, while driving along the passenger may move forwarded, the clicking noise and lock up occurs anew and the process must be repeated. I have had no problems with the dealer fixing the problem. It entails him ordering a new belt and installing it. To this date it has been replaced twice and it going out again.

Consumer states in the winter time with a coat on, it is difficult to fasten the drivers seat belt, the steel end of the belt is bent too much toward the drivers hip, requiring the driver to push the belt toward the center of the vehicle so the other end of the belt can be inserted into the buckle, the local dealer refused to install a new belt because the replacement would be identical to the factory original. The consumer stated then engine oil drain plug was designed too small, it has a hexagon head. The socket or wrench slips on the plug head and damages the plug. The consumer had to drive to the dealer to have the plug removed. Updated.
