Description of the problem | We purchased this car from a used car dealership this year. The rear seat belts don't extend or retract. There was a safety recall issued on october 15, 2004 (recall # 04v407000). Chevrolet's recall center has told me it's no longer their responsibility to repair the rear seat belts, because although this is a passenger safety concern, this recall item is now in a, "closed" status. My questions is, "really"?! Defective passenger seat belts are no longer chevy's responsibility after a certain time period? Please look into this and please advise me as to what my rights are as a chevy owner. |
