| Seat Belt problems |
My airbag light came on my 2017 Charger and I took it to the dealership. The dealership informed me that the seatbelt pretensioner needed to be replaced. The issue posses as a safety risk due to this device pulls a seat belt tight if there is a sudden movement or stop. A seat belt tensioner main factor increases the passenger protection afforded by the safety belts in the case of an accident. I called my extended warranty company and they informed me that they do not cover safety vehicle issues. (I have the preferred policy). I then called Dodge manufacture warranty and stated the concern I had being it was a safety issue and the representative atacha stated they will not be able to cover repairs due to there has been no recall even though I express the concern of it being a safety related risk.
The right rear seat belt became locked out while unbuckled during a stop at a restaurant. We returned to the car to find it wouldn't release so we could buckle up to continue our journey. We tried loosening the small part that was on a booster seat and it retracted but still refused to release. The seat belt is unusable at the moment. Will visit a dealer.
I was speeding about 80mph and hit the breaks and my seat belt locked when I stopped and it never unlock I had to get emergency to come and cut off my seat belt and my steering wheel locked up.
