Vehicle was driven directly into a small concrete post. Bumber was forced back causing engine and frame damage. Driver head struck windshield of vehicle. Driver (complainant) was operating vehicle in a parking lot and had not placed seat belt on at time of crash. Face went into windshield breaking windshield and compl. Nose. It was opinion of police, dealership personnel, and others that the airbag should have deployed with such a severe front end crash. Daimlerchrysler was written to and a subject met comp at dealership and took computer readings of vehicle. No analysis was given to compl except for written correspondance from daimler Chrysler (a. L. Gilbert -special investigator) that the vehicle did not strike the appropriate "crush" and "crunch" zones to operate airbag. We cannot believe that a front end impact into a pole with 8000 damage and the drivers face hitting and breaking the windshield is not enough of an impact to cause the airbag to deploy. We have written daimlerchrysler twice asking for the readings from the computer and no one will respond. We also still do not know if the airbag will deploy if another accident occurs with the front end. We would also be interested in other Jeep owners with similar experiences as to hope and remedy a possible fatal accident because of the airbag not deploying on Jeep products.

The rear differential was cracked, as was the exhaust manifold. Also the crank sensor harness and the tps were melted against the manifold. The dash leaked water and the brake shoes/lining and rack and pinion set needed replacing. The drivers side seatbelt would never retract and the dash lead water extensively causing the resstr-blower to go out. The radio was also broken for a couple of months.

3 of 4 seatbelts completley torn through. Dealership blames on dog or destructive children -- unfounded, dealership and Chrysler refuse to accept responsibility. Expensive to repair -- many consumers will not spend the money to repair. Belts are in my possession.

Driver side seat belt twists, causing improper fit.

Seat belt failed to restrain occupant during accident and injuries occurred.

While looking over new vehicle noticed rear seat belts were not bolted down to floor of vehicle, the bolt was just laying on the floor . Dealer bolted seat belt down. . Et.

Seat belts hang in the way of the door when exiting the vehicle, causing them the be damaged by the door and latching mechanism. This weakens the seat belt and could cause seat belt failure, and subsequently unrestrained passagers in the event of a collision.

When Jeep is stopped at side angle on hill, seatbelt is inoperative after getting back into vehicle. I had to drive down steep hill twice with no seatbelt on. Simple momentary bypass button to center pendulum would allow fastening seatbelt when vehicle is at an angle.

The front seat belts buckle side are fastened to the seats not the floor the seats are movable Chrysler told me this is safe I disagree.
