When a person sits down and buckles up on the front passenger seat the seat belt sensor chimes. It doesn't matter if the engine is off/on or in motion when the seat belt is buckled the seat belt chime will go activate. The passenger seat belt sensor is malfunctioning. The seat belt signal goes off randomly when a passenger is riding while wearing the seat belt.

While driving home from wok in a Jeep Patriot 2017 on a city street the brakes would not work suddenly and the speed increased rapidly uncontrollably. Two vehicles hit me going thru an intersection and the Jeep Patriot vehicle ran into a warehouse going thru 2 metal doors and a brick wall without any air bags deploying. The Jeep Patriot completely went into the warehouse and was stopped by hitting a large pillar.
