Functional Test - Seatbelt Retractor

WARNING: All seatbelt components must be inspected and corrected as part of any collision repair. Inspect all seatbelt components as prescribed by Seatbelt Procedure After a Collision found in Seatbelt Procedure After A Collision  . Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect operation of the seatbelt system and increase the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
NOTE: Make sure the seatbelt retractor is freely operational for extraction and retraction of the seatbelt webbing between full extension and in-vehicle stowed positions.
  1. Extract and retract the seatbelt between the full extension and stowed positions.
  2. Verify the seatbelt retractor operates without excessive effort or binding.
  3. Install a new seatbelt retractor if any concern is found or the complaint has been verified.
