| SEAT BELTS - FRONT - BUCKLE ASSEMBLY | |||

| While driving my 2001 jeep cherokee i had small objects fall off my center arm rest and hit my gen 3 seat belt latch causing it to open. this has happened twice. i have noticed that jeep has upgraded to the gen 4 latch. why hasn't there been a recall on this issue? every day seems to bring a new story of another fatal accident involving a daimler chrysler product with a faulty seat belt latch. *jb | |||

| SEAT BELTS - FRONT - RETRACTOR | |||
| 11/26/2007 | 100 | 100 | 07/01/2001 |
| Safety belt retractors do not function consistently, belts hang in door opening and become caught in the latch/strike assembly when the doors are closed. this causes damage to the belt, requiring replacement. i have owned several chrysler products (dodge dart, plymouth reliant, 2 cherokees and other) and all have exhibited this problem. *tr | |||

| The seat belts did not fail, but the belt would catch on the door latch and was rubbing holes into the belt. jeep was contacted about this problem on 2/14/01, they called and said that it was a design flaw but until more complaints were received, they would do nothing about it. demontrond was also advised about the problem, but i was told that for them to look at it, it would cost me for them to look at it. the jeep has been traded. *ak | |||

| The consumer felt that the rear seat belts were not safe to use. the shoulder belt is mounted so far back is practically wraps around your neck. *nlm ph | |||
