Description of the problem	I own a 2010 toyota matrix. The driver's seat belt buckle does not function properly, and often doesn't allow the locking/closing of the buckle and belt. That is, the buckle doesn't allow for safe, complete use. I contacted the local toyota dealership in ventura approx. 2 weeks ago, and the toyota of america corporation on sept. 12, 2014, but both refuse to replace the broken buckle for free because they say it's not a recall item. I think this should be recall item because it poses a safety hazard. Please make this a safety recall item as it poses a risk of injury or death, and please assist me in getting it replaced and fixed without my incurring a fee. Thank you.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
