We purchased a 2004 Volvo xv 90 in August 2006. Last month, July of 2009, my seven year-old daughter reached for her seat belt in third row of the vehicle and announced it was broken. Nothing unusual happened to the vehicle to cause this. Our mechanic, habeggar auto in milwaukee, Wisconsin, informed us this seat belt was a recalled item and advised I contact Volvo immediately to have it fixed. The mechanic also told me the information he got from alldate online indicated that seat belt was already fixed but failed again. When I called Volvo customer care at 1-800-458-1552 I was told I needed to go to a certified Volvo dealer. I then took it to jenkins Volvo in milwaukee, Wisconsin. They verified the fact that it was a recalled item. But when they contacted Volvo they were told Volvo would not cover the repair ($171) or the inspection of the other seat belts that were also recalled. I have emailed Volvo customer care asking them to please reconsider. This is a terrible situation. Children are at risk because an adult would rarely sit in the third row. We purchased a Volvo for its safety features and they won't even pay for their mistake? although the dollar amount to fix the one seat belt isn't huge, I don't trust the other seat belts. The recall was on the seat belts in second and third row. I want them inspected. We have a seven year-old and four year-old and often Transport their friends. I will not put them at risk.
