Drivers lap seat belt will not retract. While extending it to buckle, a noise like a tape measure rapidly closing was heard, then it would not retract. It extends out to its full extent, and is apparently worthless in case of an accident.*ak

Recall 98v168000/ manufacturer's recall sr-98-003/ transfer case failure. In december consumer took vehicle to dealer for recall repairs. Vehicle seemed to be making loud noises and locking up.

I pulled into gas station. Smoke was coming out from under hood. Small fire around fuel line, ignition wires, coil, wire harness containing injector wires. Put out w/ extinguisher. Only 2 wires to 1 injector damaged, fuel line/plug wires damaged, computer failed. Have had alot of large costly problems w/ this car in the past, including damage to differential twice, transaxle/transmission/transfer case. Timing belt failure 18 months ago, caused damage to valves (got a recall notice on this the day b4 the fire). Dealer weatherford has been working on my car since aug 1996 and timing belt recall just came (mailed feb 1 1999) please advise. Thanks! Jkm
