FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS THE CONVERTIBLE TOP LEAKS WATER INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR WHEN THE TOP FOLDS DOWN INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR, THEN THIS WATER LEAKS ONTO THE BACK FLOOR BOARDS. AFRAID IT IS GOING TO ROT OUT THE FLOOR BOARDS. THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. I KNOW OF MANY FORD MUSTANGS THAT DO THIS.

PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SEAT BELT RETRACTS ONLY AND WILL NOT EXTEND, SO THEREFORE IS NON-FUNCTIONAL. THIS IS NOT A CASE OF TWISTED BELT, AS WE HAVE ACCESSED THE PART AND ENSURED "FLAT" WIND. MY SON JUST BOUGHT CAR. PRIOR OWNER SAYS IT NEVER WORKED FOR SEVERAL YEARS. DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT IS ALSO BARELY FUNCTIONAL. BOTH PRESENT MAJOR SAFETY HAZARDS TO OCCUPANTS. LOOKING ON-LINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S DESIGN WHICH SHOULD BE CORRECTED. *TR
