Since last summer of 2015, my driver side seatbelt has been fraying. The fray is over a foot long and a 1/2" inch of seatbelt is frayed. I will attempt to send pics along with this form. It is a habit with me to always wear my seatbelt, and of all the other vehicles I have own this is the first time I've had a problem like this. I do hope that even though this may be an unusual issue, I trust you will consider this a serious problem and one that should be dealt with promptly, for it does cause me to have safety concerns each time I drive with this frayed seatbelt on. I thank you for your immediate attention on this matter. Safety is top priority with me, as I am sure it is with you as well. Again, thank you for your time and prompt attention. Fyi: If my 2 pictures just so happen to not be with this form, please contact me by E-mail and I will try to sent them to you again.

Engine light has been on for awhile. I spent 1400 to get it fixed last year so that I can pass emission but still failed and had to get a waiver. On December of 2009, a friend of mine and I was driving and it started to lose its power and started jerking. We immediately parked the car and turned it off. We waited a little while to see if we can get help somewhere but we were in a place where we can't get any cell signal so we decided to turn the car back on and at least try to drive to a place where we can get signal. Car drove ok that day but since then had jerking or shifting problem several hours after first used in the day. I had the ECU changed this year and it cost 1500. It drives better now but now the problem starts during the first use of the car each day. It doesn't happen all the time but it is annoying and might damage my engine more than the old emu had damage it. Also the seat belt on the passenger back seat during the use for the last couple of years(it didn't have much use before 2008) had started snagging to the point that it has unraveled. We found out that the metal loop that the seat belt goes though is very sharp and had caused the seat belt to get shredded.
