Driver and front passenger seats slide back and forth in an uncontrollable manner with acceleration, brake and turns. Seat belts do not engage to limit forward/side movement of human body. Seat sliding/movement has enough force to cause interruption of contact with vehicle's gas/brake pedals. Forceful forward motion of sliding seat has enough momentum on driver's side to cause human impact on the steering wheel when a hard stop/brake engaged. Passenger side seat slides with enough force to cause head to impact windshield on sudden/hard stop. Seat belts do not engage to stop forward or side motion of human body when either seat slides back/forth. 02/2015 Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram repaired seat frame with a new switch (tech notes 545 and 579) at mileage: 116,616. 2017 current mileage: 124,674.
