Faulty driver's side seat belt.*mr the consumer received recall 03v-117000 related to a faulty driver's side seat belt. The dealer was contacted and an appointment was scheduled but the part was not available. The consumer returned at a later date to have it done. The vehicle was working fine when it was dropped off. When departing the facility after repair, the drivers side front seat would not move forward or backwards. The driver's door locks would not open or lock automatically. The interior lights flickered on and off. The service rep was contacted and requested that the vehicle be returned to the dealer. Upon inspection the technician indicated that the malfunctions were not the dealers problem and that they would be billed for any repairs made.

Wiring was pinched against floorboards and drivers seat mounting frame, we had repaired at our own expense, 7 hours of labor @ $55.00/hour - price for the part -$5.53. Problems associated w/ it, driver seat adjust inoperable, interior lights flash, door locks lock/unlock by themselves. Is it a defective or incorrectly installed wiring? How is the owner responsible for wires getting crimped when adjusting the seat? We did not install the wiring, the manufacturer did. It was not abused. We do not feel responsible for wiring installed by the manufacturer getting crimped in between the floor board and drive seat when we adjust it.

The interior lights blink on an off while driving. At the same time this happens, the door locks do not work and the automatic seat button does not work. This happens sporadically, then it stops. A week goes by and it happens again. Last week, while driving at night, the headlights were blinking on and off. The dealer cannot find a specific problem unless it is happening when it is at the shop. Every time I get near the shop it does not do it.
