The seat belt on my 2001 SAAB 93 will not work. I am unable to pull the strap out from the side of the car. I took it to my local SAAB dealer they told me it would cost $700. 00 to fix. My car is only 6 years old, not only did the seat belt stop working but the abs system needs to be replaced at a cost of $3200. 00. All of these repairs seem to be a safety issue that cost an excessive amount of money. I think that SAAB should repair at the very least the seat belt which I am currently driving without.
