What owners report

  • This is just one problem...the car had major problems in the past like dying totally on a highway but that's not my concern right now. The back seat belt is locked up & it will not retract. I have a child so it's really inconvenient.

    filed May 31, 2015

  • Driver seat belt buckle froze up and the buckle would not engage. This buckle has exhibited difficulty in the last couple of months. Many times would have to push belt into slot 2x or 3x before the buckle would catch. Never thought it would be a issue. Thank god my daughter wasn't driving to school…
