Description of the problem	I just bought my car 7 months ago from locklear. Current mileage on it is about 43,000 which puts me right outside my warranty. I haven't had any problems with it until recently. I noticed when i would unbuckle my seat belt that it would tend to get stuck in the buckle. A few days later i'm leaving my house to drive to town and my seat belt wouldn't click into the buckle no matter how hard i tried. I check out the buckle and apparently the piece inside of it broke and now i can't buckle my seat belt at all! This is a huge safety concern because i always wear my seat belt in case of an accident and it's a costly ticket if i get pulled over. I called my dealer and they say the cost of just the buckle alone was 200 and the labor would be expensive too because it will take more work to take the seat completely out. Total is nearly 350 just to replace a buckle! Unfortunately i don't have that kinda money to spend so i can't get my buckle fixed or wear a seatbelt :(
