The seat belt is situated in a position to where it is regularly smashed against the striker plate on the door when the door is closed. This breaks the fibers in the belt thereby weakening the belt and making it very prone to breaking in the event of a frontal impact where the belt would be most needed.

I wish to complain about the seat belt malfunction in my 2005 Jeep Wrangler tj. With only 16000 miles the right passenger seat belt would not retract anymore and it appears that the plastic spacers came apart. I replaced the entire assembly to the cost of $325 for a new belt assembly. If my Jeep belt is defective are there many other complaints about the Jeep seat belts?

Front seatbelts fail to retract properly causing them to become jammed between the doorlock and the body latch. Belts are becoming damaged and weakened. This has been a problem since vehicle was new, situation ongoing.
