On saturday, I found that my driver side seatbelt was suddenly stuk in retracted position. it has practically no give to it. I had just used it ealier in the day without a problem. I toolk off the panel that covers the base of it but I couldn't figure ot how to unlatch it. Has anyone else had this poblem? Thanks in advance.

I really have not heard of any instances in a durango with a locked up seat belt to be honest. Their not my cup of tea knowledge wise so i couldnt tell you what could be wrong but doing a couple searches ( Other dodge vehicle lines) majority of replies mention checking the connection at the seat, and others mention a rollover box. ( But being a single side- i'd maybe rule that out). A couple people in search, had to have the dealer replace the belt system. Hopefully someone with a little more experience with the D systems will chime in, but good luck.

 

well, I called the dealer and they quoted me a price of $337.00! I love the reliability and toughness of the the Durango I have and the Dakotas I've had.

But, I hate the fact that their parts are so GD expensive! It's ridiculous...

There has to be someone who has worked around this problem?!?!

 

junkyard.

Maybe $50

Thanks for the suggestion Indy, it worked. But, anyone who does the same should take their original with them to match it. Some durangos have a single notch buckle and others have a double notch buckle. I bought the single notch initially and it didn't jive with the other parts of my 02 durango. I finally got on for $20. Thanks againg for the help folks!

 

No problem. Certainly beats $330+ at the stealer!
