| I have a 96 chrysler sebring convertible jxi and the seatbelts lock in the retracted stage at various times. both belts lock and unlock at the same time. i don't know how this happens and have been told that i need new seat belts but i can't believe that both belts went bad at the exact same time, and that the release at the same time. i have read online that this is a common occurrance in this year and model of the sebring. | |||

| The passenger seat belt on my 96 sebring has locked up and can no longer be pulled out of the seat at all. i took it to the dealer and asked about a recall, but was told it would be at least two hours labor, not counting parts and would be over $200 to fix). to me, this is clearly a defective product and a safety issue. i normally drive alone, so the belt got minimal use before becoming defective. i sent a detailed letter to daimler chrysler from their web site and got a very brief reply of i'm sorry. there was no offer of help or suggestions to speak of. at any rate, it looks like it's going to cost me a few hundred dollars to get this fixed so that passengers in my car can ride in safety once again. *jb | |||

| Callled dealer numerous times regardigng the failure of the seat belt. dealer states not under warranty and estimates repair costing 60-300 to fix, i requested repeatedtly for a chrysler rep to contact me rgarding this problem as i feel it is a safety issue but to no avail. i have contacted chrysler directly but they will not repair without an estimate from the dealer. due to the lack of response form mike shad, icontacted frank griffin chrylser in orange park, fl but they do not return my calls either. chrysler may or may not repair problem dependent on estimate but delaers seem unwilling to even provide that. my reference number at chrysler is 4406161 as i have had numerous issues with this vehicle since purchase date. *ak | |||

| Wishing to install an infant car seat in back seat, discovered that no locks are present on the back seat seat belts allowing any passengers to be thrown from vehicle. this is especially dangerous in a convertible. *tr | |||
