Seat belt button on left front is raised about 1/8 to 1/4 above buckle. I must have bumped it with hand or something cause the lach came out of buckle. I do not like the fact that these belts do that. I have grand kids that ride in my car. I also saw that news special about , the seat belts not being safe. They said they were not putting them in front of the new cars, but are in the back seats. They are not putting them in the vans or suvs any more. The rep for Dodge stated they were awear that the seat belts did not pass the steal ball test. The rep for Dodge also stated that they were not going to recall them!! I do not want thoes seat belts in my car, they are not safe. I do not want my grand kids in that car with unsafe seat belts. Thank you very much. Undone from the buckle.
