My seat belt unfastens whenever it wants and my cruise control doesn-€™t work any longer. I also have an issue with the 4th injector which causes the car to accelerate and I had to replace the transmission as well

I was hit from behind in stopped traffic and pushed into the car in front of me. I was stopped in heavy traffic on a two-way road when hit. The driver airbag didn't deploy and the collision inspector told me that my seat belt didn't either! I am lucky I wasn't hurt worse. The car I was driving was not a safe car, but was sold to me as a certified preowned car.
