PASSENGER SIDE RESTRAINT SYSTEM FAILED IN A WRECK AUG/95 AND WAS REPLACED. THE DRIVER SIDE RESTRAINT SYSTEM HAS BEEN MALFUNCTIONING THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. AUTOMATIC SHOULDER BELT EITHER JAMS IN THE TRACK OR FAILS TO OPERATE. DEALER HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR OR REPLACE SYSTEM. I BELIEVE THE MAZDA MX6 WAS BUILT IN THE SAME PRODUCTION PLANT AS THE FORD PROBE. THE FORD PROBE HAS HAD A RECALL ON THE AUTOMATIC RESTRAINT SYSTEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM WE ARE EXPERIENCING ON OUR 1991 MAZDA MX6 NOW AND BACK IN 1995.*AK
