NOW I HAVE ONLY TWO SEAT BELTS THAT WORK IN THE SUV. I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALERS HOPING THAT THEY COULD HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY SAID IT WOULD BE ALMOST 400.00 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. MY BROTHER OWNED A 1990 HONDA CIVIC AND BROUGHT IT TO A HONDA DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT AT NO COST BECAUSE BELTS ARE SAFETY ISSUE AND HAVE A LIFE TIME WARRANTY. I THOUGHT CHEVY WOULD HAVE THE WARRANTY BUT THE CHEVY DEALER INFORM NO AND NEVER WILL THAT HAPPEN. PLEASE HELP TRY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE PURCHASED FOUR BELTS FOR MY PULLEY FOR MY SUV AND STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. ITS SOUNDS LIKE A SQUEAKING AND WHISTLING. I HAVE HAD REPLACEMENT IT MYSELF THE FIRST TIME BUT IT STILL DID THE SAME THING SO I BROUGHT MY CAR TO LOCAL MECHANIC AND STILL NO LUCK, SO I BOUGHT IT TO CHEVY IT WORKED FINE FOR A FEW WEEKS THEN STARTED IT AGAIN, SO NEW ONE WAS PUT ON. THEN A COUPLE MONTHS LATER IT STARTED AGAIN, SO THEY PUT ANOTHER NEW BELT, THEN IT STARTED UP AGAIN A FEW MONTHS LATER BUT THE ONE YEAR WARRANTY TIME WAS UP,BUT IT STILL DOES IT. IS THIS NORMAL? *TR
