I purchased a 2006 Dodge Dakota on July 2, 2014 from crowson auto world, 541 hwy 15, po box 889, louisville, ms 39339. Upon getting this vehicle home I discovered that the seat belts were not properly working. On three occasions I returned vehicle to dealer and each time dealer failed to repair this vehicle. I had vehicle inspected at other dealers and found that "seat belt lite and chime do not work" and "instrument safety lights are inoperable". I need help to convince the dealer that it is not legal to sale vehicles with defective safety equipment.
