On 10/31/2001, I took my Jeep in to my local dealer in response to DaimlerChrysler recall notice #978. The work was done satisfactorily; however, the replacement parts that were installed for this recall are not acceptable. The new seatbelt buckle that was installed is significantly inferior to the original equipment. The flap of the buckle is cheap and its poor design causes the fabric belt invariably to "roll" (I.e., to double-up on itself inside the opening in the metal flap) when the seatbelt is removed. This rolling interferes with the proper deployment and retraction of the belt. Worse yet, this rolling will inevitably lead to fraying and weakening of the belt's fabric. I have already noticed the beginnings of the deterioration of the fabric. A frayed seatbelt is a serious safety hazard -- "an accident waiting to happen".
