Seat Belt problem #1

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an unknown speed, she fell asleep while driving the vehicle collided with a mailbox rolled over, and hit a tree. The contact stated that only one air bag was deployed and the seat belt released her during the collision. The contact's daughter sustained face, arms, side, back side, and leg injuries. Medical attention was needed. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximatly 85,000.

Seat Belt problem #2

The seatbelt retractor did not work on my driver seatbelt. I almost got into an accident and the seatbelt never tightened across my chest. I hurt my wrist in the process by being pushed into my steering wheel. There is already a recall on this exact part for some Jeep Wranglers manufactured in 2019, but mine did not fall into the active recall. Clearly it should be.

Seat Belt problem #3

The front seat belt retractors do not lock as intended to prevent increased risk of injury in the event of a car crash Jeep wobbles when hit a bump on highway going 50+ mph (no customization or modifications).

Seat Belt problem #4

Car is always needing a seatbelt change battery is not good visor is always getting replace all this caused by manufacture.

Seat Belt problem #5

I lease my 2019 Jeep, and in November 2021, my then 8 year old son was trapped in the driver's side back passenger seat, where it would not retract and would only get tighter. The screws would not budge to remove the seatbelt, I had 3 people I had to ask for help as the seatbelt was getting tighter and tighter and cutting off circulation to my son. We finally had to cut him out. I reported this right away to the dealer. My service advisor kept putting me off stating the seatbelt was backordered. We made due with the remaining seatbelts. 7 months later the middle seatbelt quit retracting. I was left with just one working seatbelt in the back seat, with 2 young boys, now 10 and 12, and I cannot drive anyone else in my car as I do not have working seatbelts. I have gone into my dealer, sent several emails to my Jeep dealer and spoke in person and in email to the manager and have been ignored. I sent in my issue to Jeep corporation/mopar, and they keep giving me the run around and told me I have to go through the dealer. I have pictures and emails of this all and have been ignored. My lease is up next month, and I have not been able to enjoy my Jeep with others for safety reasons. I don't understand. Why I have been ignored and Jeep does not care. There is an issue with the seatbelts in this car.

Seat Belt problem #6

Airbag delay in deployment and seatbelt failure to lock. Almost direct head on collision. After contact with the other vehicle (full size truck), my body went forward and hit over the visor in the middle. On the return to my original position I watched the airbag deploy. The seatbelt never locked. I also do not recall the airbag fully deploying. Vehicle is available to check computer. No one has inspected the vehicle and I had no vehicle maintenance issues prior.
