“The seat belt broke loose from the floor. The metal part that was screwed to the floor actually broke away from the screw. Less than 47,000 miles. But I think this is a safety issue and a seat belt should never break!! I was sitting still simply putting on my belt.”

I asked the salesman about the leaks and he stated all jeeps do that. .carpets continued to get soaked and cannot see where it is leaking so I asked the maintenance tech after our first oil change and I was told to pull the plug under the carpet and drain the water..I again was told it was normal for a Jeep to leak..approx march 2016 the wife was fed up with the water pouring in and the smell of mildew of the carpet due to leakage. She went to the dealer and complained . …”
NHTSA complaint #10925466, filed 2016-11, 15,000 miles“Stoped at a store, upon returning to vehicle the driver side seat belt was locked and un able to be used. Took it to a Jeep dealer the next day or so and they denied the warranty saying it was packed with mud. I contacted Jeep and emailed them puctures showing the dealership was lying. I went 7 days after talking to Jeep before they decided to fix it. So 2 days after it was fixed my passenger side does not work doing the same as the driver did . I dont really know how to address it now as Jeep nor the dealership cared about my safety and gave me such unessidary trouble. …”
