Description of the problem	I buckled in my seat belt as usual only to find when shifting to drive the seat belt indicator light continued to flash. I checked the children's seat belt to make sure they were buckled in and they were. I disconnected my seat belt and tried to reconnect and it would not reconnect. I visited the dealership as the vehicle was purchased roughly 3 months ago and was informed by the general sales manager this was not their problem and a loaner could not be provided until the part comes in. I asked if i would be safe and he reiterated again this was not their problem. I asked for the general manager and was denied the opportunity to speak with him. I buckled into the passenger buckle and was later informed this was unsafe, if i were to have an accident, i would not be protected. I have received no assistance. This has yet to be fixed.
