    Seat Belts

    Seat belts unbuckle by themselves. This has happens with the driver and passenger seat belts. Driver buckle failure is most frequent. One day it won't happen then the next day it will unbuckle 5 times in a short period of time. Afraid this will happen during an accident. The seatbelt buckle unbuckles stall speeds under any driving condition.
