problem #3

Nov 262007

Cherokee 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100 miles
Safety belt retractors do not function consistently, belts hang in door opening and become caught in the latch/strike assembly when the doors are closed. This causes damage to the belt, requiring replacement. I have owned several Chrysler products (Dodge dart, Plymouth reliant, 2 Cherokee and other) and all have exhibited this problem.

problem #1

(reported on)

Cherokee 4WD

  • miles
The seat belts did not fail, but the belt would catch on the door latch and was rubbing holes into the belt. Jeep was contacted about this problem on 2/14/01, they called and said that it was a "design flaw" but until more complaints were received, they would do nothing about it. Demontrond was also advised about the problem, but I was told that for them to look at it, it would cost me for them to look at it. The Jeep has been "traded.
