Tl* the contact owned a 1995 ford ranger. While driving 35 MPH, the contact's vehicle was involved in a crash with another vehicle.

The contact was transported to the local hospital and then to uva medical center to seek medical attention. The vehicle was towed to an independent facility. A police report was filed. A dealer was not contacted.
Driver's seat belt buckle mechanism failed to the point that consumer had to cut the seat belt to get out of the vehicle. Dealer was very cooperative, but the manufacturer indicated that the warranty expired, and they could not replace the seat belt. Consumer posed a question, since it was a safety item could the government force the manufacturer to extend parts warranty?
