Had to replace drivers side seatbelt in 2016 at 22567 miles. No cost as under warranty. Had to replace same seatbelt 2019 at 83860. Was charged $277.78 for this. In complaining to fca they said seatbelt should have been under warranty and they may refund my charges. But why did a seatbelt fail twice in 5 years? Seat belt will not engage in the receiver both times
I have notifications of these various recalls and have tried to get these corrected or at least checked out at the dealership where I purchased my truck. First I was told that appointments were now required. Then I was advised that 1st come/1st served was now required and full schedules are usual. Now I received another notification. I care for my ram, but my time is also important.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ram 1500. While the vehicle was parked and the rear driver's side door was being closed, the front driver's side and rear side curtain air bags deployed without warning. The front driver's seat air bag also deployed. The driver sustained back injuries that required medical attention. The vehicle was able to be driven to the contact's residence. In addition, the front driver and passenger seat belts failed to retract. The vehicle was taken to scoggin dickey chrysler dodge jeep (2483 tx-114, levelland, tx 79336, (806) 224-0266), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was included in the federal safety agency campaign numbers: 15v460000 (seat belts, air bags) and 17v302000 (air bags). The manufacturer was notified of the failures, but did not assist. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
I had my truck at the dealer for a recall, I noticed my seatbelt wasn't locking when I pulled on the shoulder strap. I asked them to look into this when my vehicle was there. They did, said the seatbelt was defective, but chrysler was not going to cover this. After further review none of my seatbelt shoulder straps lock when you pull on them fast. I have a crew cab truck so that is 5 seatbelts with shoulder straps. My dealership was on the phone with chrysler for over an hour trying to get them to cover this safety defect, they just kept saying no, truck is out of warranty. After reading all these complaints, will my airbags deploy if I'm in an accident? I don't know and hope I don't have to find out the hard way. This happens all the time driving or standing still. The dealership told me the seatbelts are defective. This should be addressed asap, no one should have to pay for a safety issue.
