As I was driving on the interstate going about 60 mph, my seat belt (driver's side) came unbuckled. As I attempted to buckle it again, I was unable to get it to stay buckled. I contacted the local car dealer who asked me to bring the vehicle in for them to inspect. Upon inspection by the dealer where I bought the truck, I was informed of the need to have the seat belt connector unit replaced. This was done the next day, and I have retained the replaced part.
