WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury during and following any seat belt or child restraint anchor service, carefully inspect all seat belts,
buckles, mounting hardware, retractors, tether straps, and anchors for proper installation, operation, or damage. Replace any belt
that is cut, frayed, or torn. Straighten any belt that is twisted. Tighten any loose fasteners. Replace any belt that has a damaged or
ineffective buckle or retractor. Replace any belt that has a bent or damaged latch plate or anchor plate. Replace any child
restraint anchor or the unit to which the anchor is integral that has been bent or damaged. Never attempt to repair a seat belt or
child restraint component. Always replace damaged or ineffective seat belt and child restraint components with the correct, new
and unused replacement parts listed in the Chrysler Mopar (R) Parts Catalog. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
possible serious or fatal injury.
NOTE: The right side of the rear center seat belt and retractor mounting bracket and the unique, keyed center seat belt lower anchor
buckle/right outboard occupant buckle unit are secured to the rear floor by a common screw, but the lower anchor buckle and the
