| 2000 | SEAT BELTS | SEAT BELTS, DRIVER SIDE. THE BELT WOULD BE LOCKED TIGHT WHEN I TRIED TO PUT IT ON, IT COULD NOT BE MOVED,, I DROVE TO BOB SCHUCK CHEVROLET IN NEW ULM MN AND TOLD THEM WHAT WAS WRONG AND A MECHANIC CAME OUT AND PULLED REALLY HARD ON IT,, FINALLY IT LOOSENED UP, AT THAT TIME IT WAS NOT IN THE LOOP ON THE HEAD REST, THAT IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED, IT WAS THROUGH THE LOOP, I DID THE SAME THE THING THE MECHANIC DID THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND THE LOOP BUSTED CLEAN OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE SAME DEALER AND TOLD THEM ABOUT IT AND HE ORDERED A NEW LOOP FOR IT. I FEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT THIS IS A DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT. I WROTE THE DEALER TELLING HIM THAT I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS DEFECTIVE IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND HE WROTE STATING THAT IF I DIDN'T PAY THE $23.00 THAT HE WOULD PUT A LIEN ON MY CAR. WHAT A FLIPPEN JOKE!!!!!!!!! PLEASE RESPOND. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM ANYONE THAT HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH ANY GM PRODUCT. MY NEXT CAR WILL BE FOREIGN!!!!!!!ANYONE CAN EMAIL ME PERTAING TO GM PRODUCTS AT [email protected].*AK |
