DEFECTIVE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT. THE BELT WAS NOT RETRACTABLE. BROKE WHEN I HIT A BUMP ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD. I DID NOT RUN INTO ANYTHING, AND MY AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY FACTOR. *AK THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT HAD FROZEN. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY COULD ORDER ANOTHER SEAT BELT BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO BE REPAIRED. *SCC *JB
UNSAFE SEAT BELTS. WHILE DRIVING, I REACHED DOWN TO PICK UP AN ITEM NEXT TO MY SEAT. I ACCIDENTALLY TOUCHED THE RED BUTTON ON THE LOWER SEAT BELT STRAP, AND THE SEAT BELT RELEASED. THIS I FEEL IS A DEFECT THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD FIX. WHY WOULD THEY HAVE THIS BUTTON SO HIGH, THAT A SIMPLE TOUCH RELEASES THE SEAT BELT. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS HAS RESULTED IN ANYONE GETTING HURT, BUT I CAN SEE THE POTENTIAL. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN A ROLL OVER, WHERE THE OCCUPANT WAS REACHING TO GRAB ON ANYTHING TO STABLE THEMSELVES, AND THEY TOUCHED THE RED BUTTON. *JB
