2014 JEEP PATRIOT — Complaint #1614805

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SEAT BELTS filed October 24, 2019

NHTSA complaint #1614805 (ODI reference 11270585) concerns a 2014 JEEP PATRIOT and was filed on October 24, 2019. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 5, 2018. The vehicle had 78,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Massachusetts based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as seat belts, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same JEEP PATRIOT cohort independently describe similar seat belts failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2014 JEEP PATRIOT shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
