The driver-side seatbelt material ripped in half so there is no longer a seat belt on the driver's side of the vehicle. One week later the passenger side ripped in half in the same spot on the belt. Neither have been repaired or replaced due to lack of money and because there was no accident insurance will not cover them.

Passenger seatbelt in front will not latch happened this spring. The car dealership had my truck for 3 weeks the begining of June to clean exhaust filter and find out why every warning light on the dash was on and did not fix the seatbelt or the other two recalls according to what I pull up with my vin. I have 4 children aged 4-12 this is unacceptable.

The passenger seat belt buckle was rough or sharp enough that it cut into the belt fabric. It would ride up the belt when retracting and hit the upper limit of travel and cut into the belt. For safety I needed to replace the belt with a new one. I saved the torn seat belt assembly and my receipt for the repair.
