1991 CHEVROLET LUMINA Complaints

MY DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT HAS BEEN BROKEN FOR A WHILE NOW BECAUSE I CANNOT FIX IT. I HAVE TO TIE THE SEAT BELT INTO A NOT TO HOLD THE EXTRA PART OF THE BELT IN PLACE FOR IT TO BE SAFE TO WEAR. IT HAS GIVEN ME PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN AUG 2000 ALONG WITH THE CALPERS WHICH I REPLACED. THE WHOLE CAR HAS GIVEN ME PROBLEMS: THE HEATING SYSTEM, THE JUMPINESS FROM THE BELTS ON THE MOTOR, REAR SUSPENSION. OVER $1000.00 HAS BEEN PUT IN IT FOR THE PAST 1.5 YRS I HAVE HAD IT.
