| Description of the problem | The driver's seat belt is fraying because it rubs against the slot in the latch. Many, many people have complained about this on the internet. I've never had this happen in any other vehicle i've owned over the 50 years i've driven. I have a 1992 camry with almost 200,000 miles on it, and there is no wear at all on the seat belt. We need a recall! |
