Arrived at my destination, pushed the little red button and.....nothing. No click, no release, no retractor rolling the belt back up...just stuck.
Push again, still stuck. Thank goodness I'm not in a fiery crash.
So I unwind the seatbelt and crawl out of it. Once free I push the button a few more times. It eventually unlocks but then it wouldn't buckle back.
I had to buckle the seatbelt into the passenger seat catch and listen to the seatbelt reminder beep at me every 30 seconds to the Mazda dealership and then back home.
Got my new catch the next day. Closer inspection revealed a familiar stamp on a failed part:
Ahhhh, the FoNoGo stamp. All my cars failed parts have been emblazoned with the Ford logo or FOMOCO stamp.
I was going to send a letter to Mazda about the failed safety part and a request for a refund, but I'm considering sending it to Ford instead. With 8X10 color glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back describing each one...
