I have recently purchased a new custom van from this dealership. my rear seatbelts are not installed properly, therefore, i can not provide safe transportation for my grandchildren. the dealer and the gm representative have been extremely non-cooperative as well as gm contractor who customized the van. i am turning to you for any assistance. i pray that you can help my wife and i with a resolution to this problem. i feel we are being taken advantage of because of our age and we can not fight back (attorney) because of our limited income. thank you. dt | |||
