The seat belt will not pull out at times and you can not wear it. I have had it in for repairs a number of times and they can not get it fixed. I even went to arbitration and won the case but their award is not fair. I am just trieing to get the truck fixed and have called Chrysler several times, in over 6 months no one has called me back.
