I have a 1997 mercury mountaineer. In which just recently my seatbelt(driver) does not hold. It keeps on sliding out. There is no tension in the buckle. I took it in to ford to get it repaired in which I have to pay $87.24. They said that the mileage has a lot to do with it.I looked up some recalls on the internet and found that there is a recall on the navigators and the expeditions on the 1997-2000 models and also on the 2000 mountaineers . Which includes ford exployers f-150,ect. I feel that there in no difference in the seatbelts on these vehicles. Safety comes first. Infact the day it happened I called ford about this problem. And they gave me an appointment one week later. In which I think that a seatbelt is very important and they should have seen me that day. Please help me.
