The upper mounting nut for the right rear passenger seat beat shoulder loop is prone to shear off the mounting plate the nut is welded to inside the c-pillar. This can happen anytime the upper seat belt loop is serviced. I had this happen to my vehicle when installing the mopar trailer tow wire harness. The install of the wire harness calls for the removal of the right rear internal trim panel and the upper right rear passenger seat belt mount. To removal the upper seat belt bolt I had used a t47 bit socket on 3/8" ratchet handle. While removing the seat belt bolt, the bolt started to spin freely and not be able to be removed. I had taken the vehicle to a mechanic for advice and they said take it to a body shop. Abra auto body in madison, wi had placed a camera inside the right rear c-piller to find the reason for the bolt spinning freely. Abra had found that the internal seat belt nut had broken free from welds that hold the nut to the right rear c-pillar. That fact that I was able to have this seat belt bolt nut break from its welds with just small hand tools concerns me that the entire jeep liberty fleet is prone to rear passenger seat belt mount point failures during a crash.
