Description of the problem | We purchased a vw touareg 2005, in may 2005, the rear center seat belt is jammed and can not lift up rear seat without cutting the seat belt. Vw service has had to cut the seat belt to be able to put the seat back up. This has occurred three times 3/1/06, 4/10/06 & 6/9/06. This occurs every time we put our seats down to load the back with stuff, and then try to put the seat back up into sitting position. *nm updated *jb |
