SEAT BELTS - FRONT - RETRACTOR
06/29/1999308/01/1997
 When originally purchased the shoulder portion of the seatbelt would not retract, the assmbly was purchased new from the mentioned dealer and replaced. on 6/29/99 the same problem occured, the shoulder portion of the belt would not retract. i purchased another assembly from the same dealer who said it was not covered by warranty and charged me 130.94 + 7% tax. in august of 1999 that new assembly again failed in the same way. this time it was covered under warranty. i wrote to gm at the time of the original failure, they responded, no coverage, no reimbursement. i wrote again with this failure and they responded the same. i'm concerned that with the same failure, multiuple times, in the same way, with new parts, that in the event the seatbelt is needed, it will not work. *ak
