What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request" 3rd for left and right seatbelts do not retract or lock. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I have children and they ride in that row if the seatbelts do not retract or lock they will fail in a crash. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. Dealership confirmed problem Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Dodge dealership has inspected vehicle on 1/3/2025 Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear" No warnings. Recently purchased vehicle and noticed 2nd time driving it. Front seat belts jave the same issue but are covered under an extended part warranty. This issue puts children's safety at risk and should also be covered however all we got from the dealer was an offer of a discount. This is a known issue with this year make and model that dodge is profiting off of because it is a safety issue. They should recall the vehicle for this since children could be at risk of ejection during a crash. As a nurse this really irritates me that they know about this and could add it to the extended part warranty and have refused to do so.

I have a 2014 Dodge Durango. The driver side seat belt will no longer retract. I took vehicle to the nearest dealership, and they said a repair would not be covered under warranty and quoted me at $375 for a $50 part and the rest being labor for about 1.5 hours of work. I asked about any warranty since it was a safety issue but they said it was not covered. I am really disappointed to hear that the seat belt retraction not working and therefore causing the seatbelt to no function properly is not a safety concern for dodge. I got home and started doing research and can see that there have been numerous complaints about this same issue: [XXX] and a related recall: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The 3rd row seat belt restraints failed. The left side was able to be fished back in but the right side was NOT able to be fished back in to get it to reset. I don-??t want to use either until they are replaced. I did see there was a recall with this same issue with other models but not my VIN.

The driver's side seatbelt no longer retracts. The seatbelt lays loose across the driver's chest. There appears to be a break in a clip causing some pinching on the seatbelt keeping it from retracting. Searching the internet this appears to be a common issue with 2014/2015 Durangos.

Driver side seatbelt will not retract. This vehicle has not been in any accidents. Took to local shop and they stated that it would cost $750 to fix. If it is a law that I have to wear the seatbelt and if I do not wear it I get a ticket it should be manditory that if tthe vehicle has not been any accidents like mine has not then Dodge should be responsible for the maufunction of this part.

Defect pertains to the front driver seatbelt assembly. The overmold of the seatbelt pillar loop has cracked causing part deformation that pinches the webbing. Webbing is able to be extracted from the seatbelt retractor assembly, but, to some extent has retraction issues. This was an issue on the front passenger seatbelt assembly several years ago, and was replaced by the dealership. It has now occurred on the driver side seatbelt assembly. I am concerned that this problem could lead to poor coupling of an occupant to the vehicle who is buckled in a position with this defect and unaware. If an occupant leans forward in their seat, a significant amount of webbing slack can be left in the system leading to a poor webbing path over the occupant torso, and/or poor coupling between the upper torso of the occupant and the belt / vehicle. This may also change the dynamics between the webbing and crash locking tongue and lead to unexpected performance characteristics.

Unknown All outboard seatbelts are not retracting. When inspected further there are cracks in the plastic holding the seat belt up and they retract fine behind that. All 4 seat belts will need replaced to work properly.

The driver-??s seatbelt will not retract. Should I get into an accident or need to slam on my brakes, by seatbelt will not lock in place as it should. Due to this malfunction. This is a serious safety issue! Seatbelts are suppose to save lives, but how can it, if it-??s not working properly"!?!? I contacted Chrysler/Dodge regarding this, they told me there was no recall. Which is shocking, since there have been other complaints regarding the same issue. I was told to have it diagnosed by a car dealership then it would be fixed. Not sure if I would be reimbursed for the cost of repairs or how that-??s suppose to work. But are they also going to pay for my lost day of work wages, to take it into the repair shop?! Then to take it back for the repairs" I highly doubt that. I believe something this concerning should-??ve already been deemed a safety recall.

My front passenger seat belt no longer functions properly. It doesn't retract, which means that it doesn't provide adequate protection to passengers in the front seat. I have not taken this to the Dealer for inspection, however I have tried to fix this and am unable to get it to work properly.
