Seat belt locking latch will release while driving. This is a random condition. The dealer could not reproduce the event in the shop and said nothing was wrong. This problem has progressively gotten worse. I will have to fix the problem since I am out of warranty now, but this is a ford problem I have seen noted on other complaints submitted.

Ford contacted me today responding to my email regarding my seat belt that has been false latching since I bought it on 1/24/02. The man verified the attempts I'd made at dealerships in fixing the problem, and that the only thing I desired was for my seat belt to be fixed. When he came back to the phone, he said any safety warranty was voided because the mileage was over 50,0000, and the recall was for 2001 fords. When asked about all the paperwork from dealerships documenting their evaluation of the seatbelt problem going back to 1/02, he said to try to take the car back there. [I have and they told me to call ford].
