My driver seatbelt unleashes on it own as I drive. When I put the seatbelt around me and it clicks, but it still comes off.

1. seatbelts, housing repeatedly fell down. Never replaced, service only pulled it back up and the problem continues 2. all four window regulators replaced prior to recall. Now I have one window that will go down. The rest are stuck in the up posiiton. Of course, my warranty is up. 3. rear differential went out at 63,000. 3,000 past warranty. 4. all four ball joints are bad. Serviceman says unsafe to drive until replaced. Still waiting on a recall. 5. passenger front seat cover came apart at seams. Service said not covered by warranty. 6. hood latch does not release hood. My vehicle is now parked and not being driven at 80,000. I do not have and will never have another Chrysler product in my drive. I bought this vehicle new and took very good care of it. It seems to be falling apart around me. Seems I have heard stories about the ball joints, wheels coming off, etc. No one killed yet, but no recall yet either I see.

My husband and I own a 1998 Dodge, Durango. We have a 17 month old daughter that we have installed a car seat in the back seat for and on several occassions we have noticed the seat belt that holds her seat in has become unlatched. It has recently been brought to my attention that this is a gen3 seat belt and this is a common problem with this latch.

Transmission problems, doesn't shift proper, no air condition, can not drive with windows down in back, very hard to control. Car is parked because I am afraid to drive it. Been back to dealer with problem after problem.

I have intermittently noticed that the seat belts going through my two daughters' safety seats have mysteriously become unclipped. It happened during normal driving time. I have not noticed them becoming unclipped at the same time. It did not occur to me that this maybe a problem until I saw the news report on wpvi-channel 6 in philadelphia, pa. I am not sure of the exact incident dates. I do recall at least two incidents when taking my children out of the car, I noticed that the one of the seats had become disconnected. I thought it was unusual, but never reported the incident.
