My concern is that the seat belt webbing frequently is trapped in the door jab upon the drivers exit. I believe this repeated action could lower the tensile strength of the seat belt webbing. Ford recently replaced the assembly including the webbing, but this replacement assembly continues to frequently not fully retract the webbing resulting in the same trappment. I contacted the Ford Motor Company safety office several times, their advice was to seek warranty replacement. This does nothing to address the potential safety issue with the webbing. The warranty narrative reads, "S25/dirver seat belt is slow to retract".

My 2000 Windstar has given us more trouble than we need.we are very displeased with it.the dealer will not work with us to give us the assured safty we need. The seat belts tighten up on their on. Back in July the back window burst out while sitting still. The door was missing a part that caused the lights to flicker.the radio goes of by it's self. All we want is another well made van.Ford will continue to fix it but we do not want this van. Please help. Thank you
