Defective seatbelt: the locking seatbelt mechanism on my doge durango fell apart in my hands. I contacted doge who told me the car was too old (98) and too many miles (60,000) they suggested I buy a new doge vehicle.
I have intermittently noticed that the seat belts going through my two daughters' safety seats have mysteriously become unclipped. It happened during normal driving time. I have not noticed them becoming unclipped at the same time. It did not occur to me that this maybe a problem until I saw the news report on wpvi-channel 6 in philadelphia, pa. I am not sure of the exact incident dates. I do recall at least two incidents when taking my children out of the car, I noticed that the one of the seats had become disconnected. I thought it was unusual, but never reported the incident.
