Description of the problem | The drivers side seatbelt doesn't retract on it's own/spring is too weak, you have to feed it back in which is a pain. Most importantly it presents a safety hazard if your car gets trapped underwater or it's on fire, the very long & basically loose belt could tangle you up leaving you trapped in the vehicle to die a slow death. Ofcourse if there is a fire you do stand a chance the fire will burn through the belt before you're completely dead. |
