drivers seatbelt problem

Postby jt2k6 » Tue Jun 12, 2007 1:49 pm

Hi,

been a while since i posted but you have helped me before,

I have a problem with the drivers seatbelt, it will not locate in the clip/clasp (whatever it's called) meaning I have to drive it without (both illegal and silly) I don't want to fix the problem myself as it is still covered but I have an issue with what I should do, the 3 garages I have spoken to say that they cannot look at it till end of next week.

so..............

should they supply me with a car till they can look at it? it is obviously illegal to drive at moment.

should they organise collection of the car as I do not want to drive it to them, an hour on the M56 and M6 with no seatbelt doesn't appeal to me (and it's still illegal)

as this is a safty critical issue should they try that little bit harder to accomidate me?

am I being selfish and expecting a bit much,

BTW my car was purchased at arnold clarke, warrington and is an 05, 5dr, 1.4 16v

thanks all

Hi there

I would suggest that as a seatbelt is a legal requirement in the UK that yes it is a safety issue and your dealer (no matter how far away from you they are) should arrange to pick the car up.

After all - would they offer to pay your fine for no belt? - I don't think so.

Have a word with your service manager, if that provides you with no joy, speak to Renault Customer Services.

I wish you all the best with your problem, let us all know how you get on.

Regards
