1995 Jeep Cherokee

AFTER MY ACCIDENT BACK IN APRIL 2000 EXITING THE EXPRESS WAS I WAS SLOWING DUE TO A RED LIGHT, A CAR FROM BEHIND REAR ENDED MY 1995 CHRYSLER JEEP . AT THE TIME I HAD NOT RELATED THE FAILURE OF THE SEAT BELT CONTROL LATCHES TO ANYTHING. I KNEW MY BODY HAD GONE FORWARD I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT AT THE TIME. UNTIL MY, DAUGHTER LATER DIED FROM SKULL DAMAGE. I WAS 5 MONTHS INTO MY FIRST PREGNANCY ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER THE BABY DIED. THE SONOGRAM SHOWED SKULL DAMAGE. I STILL AT THE TIME HAD NOT BUT THE CONNECTION TO THE SEAT BELT BEING UNSECURED LATCHES, I HAD NOTICE IT BUT REALLY WASN'T CONCERN AT THE TIME. I LATER FILED A COMPLAINT WITH DAIMLER CHRYSLER CONCERNING THE SEAT BELT THEY GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER HOWEVER, I NEVER HEARD FROM THEM. THEN I CAME ACROSS THE CASE WHERE THE LADY WAS SUITING OVER THE SEAT BELTS, HOWEVER THE ATTORNEY DID NOT WANT TO TAKE THE CASE AT THE TIME. I WAS IN FLORIDA AND THEY WERE FROM TEXAS. NOR COULD I FIND ANYONE WHO WOULD TAKE THE CASE TO PURSUIT THE DAIMLER CHRYSLER COMPANY AT THE TIME. THE COMPLAINTS WITH THE SEAT BELTS WHERE NOT SO PLENTIFUL AS THEY ARE NOW, I STILL FEEL TO THIS DAY (SERRIA) WOULD BE ALIVE IF THE SECURITY OF THE SEAT BELT HARNESS WHERE LOCKING PROPERLY, MY DAUGHTER WOULD BE ALIVE TODAY. MY BACK WOULD NOT HAVE 2 DISK OUT OF PLACE, AND THE NEED OF BACK SURGERY. *TR
