I believe there is a defect in the design of the "gen 3" seatbelt systems. The release button protrudes too far, and can be inadvertently bumped, causing the belt to unhook. I did not find this a problem until we had a baby and began using an infant carrier. 3 days in a row, our baby's seatbelt was mistakenly unhooked, first when I hooked my belt next to hers and didn't realize I'd bumped hers, then twice a dog sitting next to the infant seat stepped on the release button and unhooked the seatbelt. I believe that if the belts were designed to pass the "ball test" which chrysler refuses to use, these problems would not have happened. Chrysler maintains that the belts pass all required tests, and that is true. My concern is that my baby has travelled unrestrained (without our knowledge) because of a manufacturing detail that should be corrected before injury occurs that can be linked to this defect. There is currently a lawsuit under appeal in which a man was killed, but chrysler maintains that the belt did not fail; rather, the man was not wearing the seatbelt. His family argues that evidence exists to the contrary. At minimum, I want chrysler to offer belt designs that would not unhook so easily - as an option that customers could purchase - none are available at this time for my vehicle, and there are no plans for production. Best result would be recall. Nlm
