The automatic seat belts stopped working on the driver side and passenger side. Vehicle will be taken to the dealer on 7/16/2003. It was possible that the seat belt modules had gone bad. The dealer didn't have the part so the consumer had started back traveling, and two days into the trip the seat belts started to work again.
