What 1994 Dodge Caravan owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
While trying to adjust power seat, lightly bumped release button for safety belt, and belt was released. Consumer stated, prime time broadcasted statistics on test results on dodge and/or chrysler products.
Gen 3 seatbelt--please help parenta recall for the safety of all our families especially our innocent children.
The metal fatigue of this part is suspect since we have had no accidents or collisions. Failure of this part prevents the seatbelt from working properly and could actually cause a fatal accident if this failure had occurred during highway driving. We have been trying to get this part repaired since february of 2001. We were told that this part number had changed 17 times and was on back order. Finally, after having to return to the dealer to re-repair the airconditioner, we called the chryserler manufacturer to see how we could solve the problem. They informed us that the part had never been ordered. Now the cost of the part has increased from $25.00 to $143.00. This is a serious safety issue and we have found no recourse for a solution. Please advise us of steps that need to be taken to bring this problem to the attention of other dodge caravan owners.
Seatbelt gets stuck in door path; when entering vehicle seatbelt is loose, and won't protect occupant in a crash. Also, problm with door latch striker which the occupant must slam door in order to shut. Ak because the belt retractor spring was weak, the driver seat belt has about a foot of slack.
Vehicle was involved in a collision. Upon impact, the rear right passenger's restraint did not retract and locked, throwing the passenger forward, resulting in minor injuries.
Front r/l seat belt/shoulder belt do not retract, getting caught in the bottom of the door-we have to lay the seat belt in the seat-we have tried to retract manually but it still does not work-has there been a recall on either our truck or our van for these seat belts?
Seat belt latch failed to stay latched while involved in an accident. Seat belt latch is available for inspection if needed. Dealer notified.
Driver's side seat belt failed to fasten properly. Dealer notified and refused to repair unless cost goes to consumer.
Seat belt clip in the middle rear of vehicle does not remain latched. Owner is very concerned for safety.
