What owners say
The drivers side seat belt buckle became unfastened while driving. There was a recall for this problem ( recall no.#97v148000 seat belt system ) but the vehicle identification number was not apart of the recall. The manufacturer was aware of the problem. *jb
Seat belt retractor on driver's side would not retract or release intermittently. Dealer notified. Feel free to provide any further information.
The seatbelt will rewind mechanism is locked and will not permit the seatbelt to extend. In this state a seatbelt is required. It is also a major safety feature that could prevent serious injury or death. Additionally, the seatbelt mechanism is not accessible by any apparent means without causing damage to the interior of the vehicle.
Seatbelt buckle inside of carseat is defective. When putting child in car seat it sounds like buckle is fastened. But, when pulling on buckle it will come loose.
The drivers side seat belt would not pull out or retract from the mechanism. I took the van in for replacement and was charged $178 to replace the seatbelt assembly. I think this is wrong for me to pay for a safety related device. I have already paid the bill but want to know if it is possible to get a refund from chrysler?
In october 1997, the driver side seat belt jammed in the fully retracted position. I had it replaced and didn't think much about it. Then in july 1998, the exact same problem occurred with he belt for the right second bench seat position. I had this belt replaced, but this time I asked the dealer for the defective belt. I have it. Do you want it? I feel that one failure may have been bad luck, but two failures seems like there may be a problem with the components.
Seat belt was not retracting to original position. Seat belt remains stuck in the side panel, or extends half way.
Driver seat belt frequently is inoperable. Belt will lock in track and not be allowed to reach latch for fastening.
Middle right seat belt buckle detaches from where it is anchored to floor, no injuries, owner reattached belt buckle, not checked by dealer.
Right middle seat belt spring broke where it attaches to floor; owner hooks belts around armrest to keep tension on floorboard, not checked by dealership.
The seat belt latch came off from the floor hook, it has happened to consumer twice. (ea 97-005).
