WASHINGTON, D.C.: The government is investigating complaints that seat belts in older versions of Chrysler's top-selling minivans are becoming unhooked from a floor anchor in the middle row of the vehicle. As many as 1.1 million minivans produced from 1991 to March 1993 may be involved.

In one complaint, South Carolina resident Lynn Beaty hit the brakes on her 1992 Dodge Caravan...
