Seat belts: front: anchorageReported May 12, 1997 · 24,000 vehicles affected
What is wrong
The guide rail on the driver's side contains a covered cable and also an angled belt guide at the top end of the webbing. The combination of these factors can lead, over time, to the cable's movement exerting abrading force to the lower edges of the cable's chamber, sufficient to cause the cable to drop out of the chamber with the shoulder belt anchorage becoming stuck.
Risk
In the event of a crash, the seat occupant may not be properly restrained.
Remedy
Dealers will install a new replacement guide rail that incorporates a double lip dust seal and an anodic oxide coating.

Chrysler corp. Will not cover the repairs to my vehicle under mfg campaign #728 (the federal safety agency campaign #97v073002). Chrysler claims my vehicle was not included as part of the recall. We've pulled the defective guide rail out of the vehicle and the cable did drop out of the chamber resulting in the shoulder belt anchorage becoming stuck. I am very unsatisfied with the way in which chrysler has handled my complaints as I feel this is not a minor mechanical defect but a major safety defect in the vehicle.
