My 2004 Jetta has 51,000 miles and is only 3. 5 years old. The air bag/ seat belt alert icon came on and I brought the car to new country vw in greenwich CT. I was told that the passenger seat belt latch failed and needed to be replaced. I was charged $140. 00 for this visit and was told that the repair would cost $425. 00. They stated that the part was on a nation wide backorder and they did not know when the part would be in the USA. The fact that there was no part available in the entire us indicates to me that there is a problem with this part. A critical safety component like safety belts should not fail after only 3. 5 years and should be excluded from any limited warranty. Also because of this parts failure I was told that the air bag system would not work properly, which is another safety issue.

I purchased my 2005 Volkswagen Jetta in April 2005 from colonial Volkswagen in feasterville, PA. On August 24th I brought it in because my front passenger seat belt broke. The dealer indicated that they didn't have the belt in stock and would have to order it. I told them that I was unhappy with the fact that they didn't stock seat belt parts for a new vehicle and that I felt it was dangerous to ride around in a vehicle without seat belts. I also called Volkswagen, but they have been unable to remedy the problem. As of today, sept. 1, 2005, the seat belt is still not in. This is a dangerous situation. If I should get into an accident and my passenger is hurt or killed, who is responsible?.

I own a 1999 1/2 Volkswagen Jetta. The seat belt mechanism on the driver side seat broke and had to be replaced at a substantial cost of my own. The piece that broke was the buckle where the belt gets inserted into. I was curious to know if seatbelts have lifetime warranty with cars. If not, does the Volkswagen Jetta have a history of seat belt failures? thank you, mark mclean.
