On a drive home from my mother's house, I had come to a complete stop waiting to make a left turn on a residential road when I heard a clicking sound. Then my seat belt tightened on its own and immediately after that the driver's side air bag deployed. Fortunately I was uninjured with the exception of a slight burn on my forearm.

My repair shop ordered a seat belt from Chrysler 6 weeks ago and it still is not in. Chrysler has no answer and even denied an escalated order from the dealership. This is a safety issue and should be taken care of immediately!

Upon entering vehicle and sitting in the driver seat, an attempt was made to latch the driver side seat belt. Upon inserting the latch into the receiver, the connection did not hold as it had the previous eleven years. Upon further investigation it was visible that the red plastic latching device in the receiver was in a depressed position. The seat belt sleeve would enter the receiver in the slot but would not catch and hold making it unusable and therefore unsafe to drive. The latching device on the receiver was able to be pried upward at one end and, only by sliding the belt latch into the receiver while being careful not to push it any further than necessary to catch, it would latch and hold. If it was pushed even 1/4 inch deeper the latch would stick in a depressed position and a secure connection was impossible to achieve. It then needed to be manually popped back up into the position to receive the belt latch by using a tool with a hooked piece of metal on it similar to a knitting needle or a bottle/can opener on a pocket knife. Prying it up with a screwdriver may also work but might take several attempts, being careful not to damage the receiver.
