Your driver's seat belt doesn't retract properly — it hangs loose and requires you to shake it to make it pull back in. The problem has gotten worse since you purchased the car 4 months ago, and your dealer says you're outside the warranty period. A faulty seat belt retractor is a safety concern that should be addressed.

Per the Jeep Dealership that currently has my car, they said the Drivers side seatbelt failed, the buckle will not lock. The male part will not go into the female part. There is no foreign object in the female part of the seat belt. My safety is put at risk every moment I'm in the car without a seatbelt on along with it being against the law to not have your seatbelt on. There is no warning lights that came on as the computer thinks the seatbelt is actually clicked in because its broken. A seatbelt should never fail especially on a 3 year old vehicle, however my extended warranty won't cover the "safety restraint system" and Jeep doesn't feel that they should have to replace it either.

Passenger seatbelt does not retract nor does it have tension. If in a wreck it would not function properly.
