The second seat seat buckled one on driver side and the one in middle have broken. My families safety is at risk because we are not able to use the seatbelts with these broken buckles. No I have not taken it to a dealer or independent repair shop nor has it been inspected. No warning lamps or messages appeared when it first appeared nor has it since. My car has not been in an accident.
My seat belt broke off, the cables that holds it together just broke and this is something not sure how it would happen.
The plastic casing that keeps the seat belt in place on a rear seatbelt broke apart making the seatbelt unusable. A child's carseat was moved to the other side when I Seen that the plastic was also cracked on that one making it unusable. There has been no incidents because I won't put a child in my car. There has not been any kind of inspection done yet.
I COME TO A STOP THEN MY SUV STARTS TO SHAKE THEN TURNS OFF AS I AM AT A LIGHT OR ABOUT TO TURN AT A STOP. WHEN I PUSH AN THE GAS PEDAL THE WHOLE SUV SHAKES AND SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON RIGHT BEFORE THE WHOLE CAR JUST TURN OFF WHEN I COME TO A STOP. I'VE HAD ALL 4 CO2 SENSORS CHANGED. EVERYTHING THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME TO FIX I HAVE PAID TO HAVE DONE ON MY CAR. AND YET MY PROBLEM IS THE SAME THING FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. I COULDN'T RETURN IT BECAUSE I WAITED TO LONG AFTER MY WARRANTY. NOW I AM TOLD TO KEEP PAYING FOR SERVICES I HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE DONE. EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENS TO BE THE SAME THING THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING UP ON THE COMPUTER. I HAVE A LEMON ON MY HANDS AND NEED HELP FIGURING OUT WHAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS.

SEAT-BELTS: WHEN BUCKLE IT, THE HARD PART INJURES THE PASSENGER. DRIVER SEAT: PELLETS CAME OUT OF THE RAIL OF THE SEAT. DRIVER SEAT HEADREST: WHEN DRIVING, IF A PERSON HOLDS THE HEADREST AND PUSH IT, IT MOVES, MAKING THE DRIVER MOVE THE HEAD. THE HEADREST DO NOT HAVE A LOCK. ALL THESE ISSUES HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING IN THE STREET, HIGHWAY. THIS IS UNSAFE CONDITION FOR THE DRIVER AS WELL FOR THE PASSENGERS. I HOPE THIS ISSUES ARE RESOLVED BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCUR.
