Passenger Side Back Seat Seatbelt ripped under normal wear and tear.
THE PASSENGER SEATBELT LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING WHEN SEAT BELT IS BUCKLED AND IT SAYS PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF WHILE THERE IS SOMEONE IN THERE AND BUCKLED UP. THIS HAPPENS WHEN PARKED OR DRIVING, WE HAVE UNHOOKED THE BATTERY TO TRY TO RESET IT. NO LUCK. I AM AFRAID IF WE WERE TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY.
THE SEATBELT IN THE DRIVER SEAT IS EXTREMELY HARD TO BUCKLE. I HAVE TO FORCE THE THE SEATBELT INTO THE BUCKLE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT LATCHES. I FEEL LIKE IT'S A FAULTY LATCH AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
