Driver side seatbelt will not retract. This vehicle has not been in any accidents. Took to local shop and they stated that it would cost $750 to fix. If it is a law that I have to wear the seatbelt and if I do not wear it I get a ticket it should be manditory that if tthe vehicle has not been any accidents like mine has not then Dodge should be responsible for the maufunction of this part.
2014 Dodge Durango seat belts complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 56, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The contact owns a 2014 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that upon entering the rear of the vehicle, she became aware that rear passenger seat belts failed to retract. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the seat belt assemblies. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to Warranty Recall X90. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the federal safety agency Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 80,000.
The seatbelt pulled out and won’t go back in.
Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module failure. Existing Recall for other 2014 Dodge Durangos
Defect pertains to the front driver seatbelt assembly. The overmold of the seatbelt pillar loop has cracked causing part deformation that pinches the webbing. Webbing is able to be extracted from the seatbelt retractor assembly, but, to some extent has retraction issues. This was an issue on the front passenger seatbelt assembly several years ago, and was replaced by the dealership. It has now occurred on the driver side seatbelt assembly. I am concerned that this problem could lead to poor coupling of an occupant to the vehicle who is buckled in a position with this defect and unaware. If an occupant leans forward in their seat, a significant amount of webbing slack can be left in the system leading to a poor webbing path over the occupant torso, and/or poor coupling between the upper torso of the occupant and the belt / vehicle. This may also change the dynamics between the webbing and crash locking tongue and lead to unexpected performance characteristics.
Unknown All outboard seatbelts are not retracting. When inspected further there are cracks in the plastic holding the seat belt up and they retract fine behind that. All 4 seat belts will need replaced to work properly.
Passenger side 3rd row seat belt does not retract. Both outboard seats in middle row must be manually retracted and drivers seat belt is becoming sluggish to retract and needs to be manually retracted at times
The driver’s seatbelt will not retract. Should I get into an accident or need to slam on my brakes, by seatbelt will not lock in place as it should. Due to this malfunction. This is a serious safety issue! Seatbelts are suppose to save lives, but how can it, if it’s not working properly?!?!? I contacted Chrysler/Dodge regarding this, they told me there was no recall. Which is shocking, since there have been other complaints regarding the same issue. I was told to have it diagnosed by a car dealership then it would be fixed. Not sure if I would be reimbursed for the cost of repairs or how that’s suppose to work. But are they also going to pay for my lost day of work wages, to take it into the repair shop?! Then to take it back for the repairs? I highly doubt that. I believe something this concerning should’ve already been deemed a safety recall.
My front passenger seat belt no longer functions properly. It doesn't retract, which means that it doesn't provide adequate protection to passengers in the front seat. I have not taken this to the Dealer for inspection, however I have tried to fix this and am unable to get it to work properly.
Seat belts do not retract without help
Passenger side seat belt fails to retract preventing proper utilization of the seat belt, limiting the effectiveness of the restraint device.
The third row seat belts no longer retract and have the same issue that my front driver and passenger seat belts had. Those were both fixed under an extended warranty, but the rear belts which appear to have the same mechanism and same fault (crack in the plastic) were not included.
The front passenger and third row passenger seat belts are locked and unusable. I can't have anyone sit in the front seat as it is locked at a position that it will not click in and will just dangle. The third row passenger seat belt also will not retract or come out.
Driver side third row seat belt will not retract. It came out and stayed out all of the way. It is unusable . I've tried everything to get it to go back in.
The second and third row seat belts have cracks like the recall to the front driver and passenger side seat belts. Dealer said current recall does not include the other rows and it is dangerous for both children, car seats and adults when riding as passengers. Cost just for the third row is quoted at $1,300. I have 2 daughters that I do not feel Safe in the car in the event of an accident.
Drivers seat belt won't retract
As I was getting in my car I notice the passenger side headrest was apart/deployed without any accindent. Also having issues with the passenger seat belt not retracting.
Rear seat belt guides plastic is cracked preventing seat belt from retracting
A passenger seated in the third row drivers side seat extended the seatbelt to fasten. Once we were in transit, the passenger leaned forward, causing the belt to extend. When they leaned back into seat, the belt did not retract. Upon trying to get the retraction to engage, the seatbelt became fully extended and would not retract, putting passenger safety at risk. We were able to stop the vehicle without further incident to address. Upon inspection, it appears that part of the mechanism behind the interior panel is broken. We were able to move the passenger to the other rear seat position since the vehicle was one seat short of being at passenger capacity. We will have the belt evaluated by the dealership upon returning from our travels. This is the first instance of the issue in this vehicle, however based on consumer feedback research, this seems to be a common issue in this year/make/model of vehicle.
We had problems with the driver seat belt we had dealership look at it and there were no recalls. We had it replaced . NOW the passenger seatbelt will not retract - there should be recalls for my vehicle as I have seen where other Dodge Durango’s had recalls for the same issue. I cannot transport anyone in my passenger seat until it is fixed. Highly disappointed - we have a Dodge Durango - Chrysler Van and Dodge Ram - we give our business to these brands and the seatbelts are not under recall when they are failing to restrain people. This should be covered under recall!
This specific model I'm currently leasing is a limited model. I've had it for maybe 3 years. According to the manual, were only to use e85 fuel so that it could run smoothly. Unfortunately, not many gas stations where I live carry that specific gas type and not many gas stations in florida and other states alone, provide e85 fuel we are given no choice but to use the alternative gas. It's becoming a nuisance when we want to travel. When the check engine light first appeared the gas gauge also stopped functioning. The truck isn't able to reach a full tank. Something is preventing it. This is becoming an inconvenience for me and my family to have to search and go to just 2 gas stations miles apart from each other to be able to put gas in! Majority of the times the gas stations that do offer this type of gas are down due to maintenance. Since I've been puttting in the alternative fuel which is the 87, the truck isn't functioning properly and now I'm starting to have all sorts of problem with my truck. It's a headache. I really love my truck and don't want to get rid of it. I had a mechanic check it out and was told that my my fuel injector and fuel sensor need to be replaced. The costs are expensive and I don't think it's fair.
The front passenger side seatbelt won't retract.
Drivers side seatbelt will not retract
Front seat belt retractors have locked making them unusable. I am the only owner, no accidents and 81000 miles. Dealer says not covered under warranty and cost to repair is over $600 each. This is a noted issue on the same year jeep too. This should be a recall item. My car is child free also. This is unsafe and should not be occurring,
Seat belts wont retract, forward collision system works only half the tome or less.
Seatbelt for driver no longer retracts or locks when brake is applied. Doesn't retract back when vehicle is off and seatbelt is removed just flops. Back lift gate opens and then closes and suspends halfway will hit your head if you're standing under it. Interior overhead lights do not turn off while vehicle is in motion and running. Don't turn off for about 5-10 minutes after vehicle turned off and is locked.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge durango. The contact stated that the front driver's side seat belt retractor malfunctioned and the seat belt failed to retract and secure the driver. The vehicle was taken to holzhauer motors located at 1200 s. 2nd st, cherokee, ia 51012-2139, and diagnosed that the retractor assembly was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 55,000.
I was driving down the street and 1 vehicle in front of me about 3 to 4 car lengths. The woman was going same speed, I looked to my right to assure a dog was not going to run into the strret, 2 seconds, an looked back at road and person in front had stopped, with no turn signal on and no oncoming traffic. I firmly applied brakes and tried to veer around the car but there was not sufficient space and hit the back of car so hard it tossed around items in the car breaking front windshield, knocking off my glasses. The force was so hard it thrust my body hard onto steering wheel and leg into dash. The airbags did not deploy for driver or passenger. The seat belt did not hold my body to the seat. I have a very serious contusion on left leg where putting weight on the leg is terrible pain. I have a fractured sturnum(chestbone) making breathing, walking, getting up or down, reaching for something extremely difficult and extremely painful. Your site by VIN number states there was a recall on airbags, I never received any notice of a recall on airbags or seatbelt. I phoned local dealership for history and they reported there has never been a recall on this make and model. I talked with insurace agent and an attorney and they had no information of recalls on this vehicle. Now I dont know what to believe, but I do know something is wrong as either the airbag or seat belt should have prevented me from being thrust forward so hard to fracture my sternum and cause serious injury to left knee. I would like an investigation as to why the airbag and seatbelt did not work properly. I dont believe this vehicle is safe. Please conduct the investigation.
The seat belt component cracks causing it to push on the seat belt and therefore, not allowing the seat belt to retract. This happened almost a year ago, we haven't been using the seat. We just finally had it looked at and we're told that both of them in the 3rd row are cracked but the driver side is currently still working. I have photos but I can't upload it on this form. The picture with the crack on the side is the one not working. The one with the crack in the middle still works.
Rs I am told it will cost $954 ($300 labor - $654 in parts) to fix both seatbelts when I feel this is a safety issue and should be under some sort of warranty/recall
