2012 Hyundai SANTA FE Seat Belts Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1101368
Internal NHTSA #	10626994

Model	SANTA FE
Model Year	2012
File date	20/01/12
Component	SEAT BELTS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The middle seat (passenger) driver's side shoulder seat belt came apart when a passenger tried to buckle up. The passenger pulled the shoulder strap out to pull around and buckle to the seat latch when the latch plate just slide right off of the belt. There was nothing securing the shoulder strap. It just came apart. I went to the dealership to have the problem checked out and fixed as i was certain it would be covered under the car's warranty. I was shocked to find out that i would have to pay a couple of hundred dollars to have the seat-belt fixed! How could the dealer/manufacturer not be responsible for a seat-belt malfunction? I still have the seat-belt problem as i believe that hyundai should fix it and not charge me. If this happened to me, then i feel that it probably has happened to other vehicle owners so i am trying to find out if this is a wider spread problem than just a fluke with me.
