“The drivers seat belt doesn't retract on it own. I'm constantly having to pull the extra slack back to allow it to retract. It get hung up on the adjustable loop on the pillar. The extra slack makes it so when yo unstop short (or crash) the belt won't lock to keep you from flying forward”

I'm worried for our safety if an accident occurs and the seatbelt does not hold driver in place. Has not been seen by dealer due to dealership wanting me to pay out of pocket. First started a few months back and has not resolved its self.”
NHTSA complaint #11511629, filed 2023-03“Air bag is showing not working and seat belt shows not secure along with warning light on dash. Not feeling secure in driving vehicle with kids or myself, dealer was advised and would not replace it unless i paid for it $1000.00 and they charged $200.00 to diagnose the issue that is considered a safety problem. Warning lights all over the dash, not safe driving. They are telling me its the occupant restraint module thats faulty”
NHTSA complaint #11596696, filed 2024-06“The retractor on the seatbelt don't retract you have to feed the seatbelt back in the hole in order for it to stay in your car. If I try to pull really hard the seatbelt dose not stop 3/5 time you pull it. If an accident happens to my family it will be on the hands of Ram.”
