problem #3

Dec 092005

Ranger

  • miles
The passenger side front seat belt has been replaced on this vehicle 3 times since Nov of 2003. The total mileage driven since that first replacement is 9023. The first replacements were for all 4 seat belts, prior to warranty expiration at 49,499 miles. Now the passenger side is failing again after only 2605 miles and Ford does not want to warranty the belt because it was replaced 14 months ago. I believe there is a defect in my vehicle or the seat belt design. I do not want to pay for a new seat belt only to have it fail again.
