“Just within the last month, I have had difficulty getting the driver seat belt to clasp. It take a few tries, but finally does. But, it doe not seem secure and I am afraid that it may become unclapsed while driving. In the past it always worked fine and the clasp seemed much more secure. I was wondering if any other driver have had a problem with this. I sincerely appreciate any help or guidance you could give me. Thank you.”
