Third Row Split Bench Seat: Notes
WARNING:
To avoid personal injury or death, 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 inoperative 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 faulty seat belt and child restraint components with the correct, new and unused replacement parts listed in the DaimlerChrysler Mopar Parts Catalog.
NOTE:
Before you begin the removal procedures, with the third row seat backs folded down, look closely between the rear edge of the seat back panel and the front edge of the rear floor storage bin cover to determine whether the two blind rivets securing either the left anchor bracket (4) (for the left outboard and center anchor buckles) or the right anchor bracket (6) (for the right outboard and center buckles) have been previously removed. These blind rivets are used as an assembly aid during the manufacturing process and, once removed, they do not require reinstallation.
