Consumer Description

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SHOULDER BELT STICKS IN THE RETRACTOR AND WILL NOT COME OUT. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES/HOURS OF TUGGING, IT MAY/MAY NOT FREE UP AND PULL OUT. EVEN THEN, IT GENERALLY DOES NOT MOVE FREELY IN AND OUT OF THE RETRACTOR. I PREVIOUSLY HAD TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE SHOULDER BELT WHICH HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, AT A COST OF ABOUT $200. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS SAFETY RELATED, DODGE WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR. *AK
