Rear seatbelt will not retract. Mileage is past warranty coverage & fix is very pricey (approx $800). This is a major safety issue especially with passengers, mostly children, in the back. I googled this & it seems I am not the only one who has this issue. It is wide spread & a fault of the manufacturer. Mercedes should be required to fix this free of charge! Please help.
