The contact owns a 1999 Dodge Ram 3500. The contact stated that the front passenger seat belt does not retract properly. The failure would prevent occupants in the vehicle from being protected in the event of a crash. The dealer stated that the VIN was excluded from NHTSA campaign id number 01V119000 (seat belts:front:retractor) and they would not assume financial responsibility. When the contact entered her VIN on the manufacturer's website, the output stated that her VIN was included in the recall. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 64,000. Updated 5/5/09 the seat belt retractor did not extend over the passenger. The seat belt retractor was frozen so the belt can't be released. Updated 05/06/09.

Repaired fuel injection system and charged me part of that which I assumed was covered under warranty seat belt has not been repaired they say it is not their problem but according to NHTSA, belts are manufacturer?S problem. Transmission: We were in traffic in March in houston tx when transmission decided not to work properly. Downshifting in traffic nearly causing a major accident.the Dodge place said it was the valve body which was not the problem at the time the band needed adjusting which cost $87 and they said it would cost $1300 to fix I pulled into traffic and it did it again 7 months later it is out of warranty so tried to remedy problem & ourself could not do. Called Dodge Corp. And was told to take to dealership to see if they could help us financially fix this. We did they said they would except $200. I said ok fix the problem then they called back and said since somebody else had put parts on it they would not fix it. I told them that before they started. So go figure. I consider this a safety issue just because of it down shifting in traffic alone but to no avail

Lap belts do not come across lap. Belts ride high on abdomen. Can cause serious problms if accident happens. Also, shoulder belts cut too close to neck & jaw line area. Will be taking to dealer to be corrected.
