Description of the problem | The seat belt in my 1993 mitsubishi 3000gt sl does not work correctly. The belt will still have slack in it and it will not retract to its original position. If i have to brake hard the belt will not keep me against the back of the seat because it has so much slack, once it is pulled on it will not retract. Sometimes after i get out of the car the seat belt will hang outside of the door after i shut the door from all of the slack in the belt. This is a very common problem on dodge stealths and mitsubishi 3000gt and it is very unsafe. Thank you for your time.*jb |
