Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Defective driver and passenger seat belt, in 98 dodge ram. i have contacted the dodge headquarters, when the seatbelts failed the first time two years ago, hq stated that they would pay for labor only, and not replace the part. dodge replaced the seatbelt sensor which is electronic under the seats, the wires get pinched off, when the seats are moved forward and back therefore creating a short in the wires, and thus the seatbelts fail b/c they are on an electronic weight system. i do not have the money it takes to continually replace these every two years, i think this should be looked into since it is a safety hazard. *tr
