Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The back seat (passenger side) seat belt - the connection in the seat, always goes down in the opening and is very hard to get up, i do think this is a safety concern, since sometimes you can't get it out to clip the seat belt into. The hole where the connection is, is too big, and when you try to connect the seat belt into it, it goes down. I have gone to the dealership many times, and they take it out. I have also contacted the hyundai corp., but was told my santa fe is operating as designed and that there is nothing they can do for me. The dealership, also claims the same thing every time i am there. I was just there on 2/29/2012, and was told that maybe i should try girls hair band and get a big one a wrap it around a few times, and that should hold it up. Can you please look into a solution that might make them correct it. Also i know of 3 other people that have the same problem on there cars.
