The seat belt does not consistently latch. Also, the seat belt comes unlatched while driving with the button untouched. As an example, the seat belt unlatches without touching the red button on the expressway at 70 mph.

The contact owns a 2004 Jeep Liberty. While driving various speeds, the vehicle veered in the opposite direction. There were no warning indicators illuminated. In addition, the passenger side seat belt failed to unlock. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the ball joints needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The contact was advised that the upper control arms needed to be replaced; however, the repairs were not performed. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the contact was awaiting a return phone call. The failure mileage was unknown.

Important this is translated from spanish to english in google translator. My reason for my complaint is, to help me with the problem I have, really do not know if this merchant exists or is something ghost. I have tried to communicate with the seller and with the local dealer but it is impossible no answer, as the place is far to go, I have not yet had the opportunity to go to the local. For this reason I think I am a victim of fraud. I have also tried to communicate with them using barios phone number, but it is impossible not answer. Saturday 22 October 2016 I was cleaning the SUV when I realize that the passenger seat lacks a turnillo and safety belts of defects are removed. I quickly call the seller but not answered. That same day I informed my mechanic avia come to my house, told my SUV has a water leak and burned in the muffler, when my check mechanic tells me is not water is oil, again I contact the seller and I sent him a text message and does not answer me, my mechanic informs me, the trader can not sell tire truck with bad quality, my SUV the tire are worn, not really sap that information. Until today I call and leave a text message to the seller but he does not answer when I call the merchant I end the call. For this reason I think I am a victim of fraud. Please ask for help because now I have no car and not think it's sure I use the SUV in these conditions, another thing I want to add on the water leak, the reality is that the radiator is broken, the seller lied to me deceived me, the me I swindled. That day when I got home it was night, I when I get home check the part of the front of the SUV, the part where the engine is, the water reservoir had no water, for me that was strange and contact the seller, I told the salesman that the water reservoir had no water, the seller told me that was normal.

My daughters were driving home and the rear tire slid on some gravel and it appeared she over corrected and they went over an embankment and rolled at least 8 to 10 times. At some point while they were rolling both of their seatbelts (both front seat)came unhooked and caused my youngest daughters head to hang out the window. People should know that this will or may occur in an accident of this type for their safety.
