Seat belt retraction system does not work on driver seat, and occasionally fails on the passenger side. The part that fails is the return of the shoulder belt. Leaving the shoulder belt loose and of little value. On the front passenger side, the shoulder harness sometimes fails to tighten up but then during the ride it will make a zipping sound and retract and tighten to a proper fit. As for the ABS, they kick in at times when not needed, and it is difficult to tell, but seems as if the brakes do not grab as they might. Example, we have some sandy areas on our gravel road, and if I touch the brakes the ABS sometimes kicks in, and does not let up when I let off the brake.
