When involved in an accident my sons seat belt unlatched causing him to be thrown foward, luckly he survived the accident with only bumbs, cuts and bruises. The repair shop told me the belt seamed fine, but I have been bothered by this ever since and did my own research to discover that this is a know problem and they no longer use this type of buckle. Crysler refused to change my buckles to the new kind and I fear if in another accident it could be fatal.
The integrated child seat buckle doesn't latch all the time, and it is hard to release. The integrated seat is located on the passenger's side middle bench seat. Mechanic stated to the consumer that the buckle was defective.
