SeanA4 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hello folks, I tried to search for the problem I have, but cant find a result. Basically the drivers seat belt, has some how folded over on itself and jammed inside the pillar. The downside is, my car is at home and I'm currently in Cambridge until the end of the week. Has this happened to anyone before? Does anyone have an idea how I can rectify this myself? Thanks in advance, Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Hi Sean I get this issue occasionally in my Ford escort (my first ever car and now used as a second weekend car ) and for me it's just a case of persuading the seatbelt to unfold. If you can I find pulling on the belt and trying to unfold it at the same time can work, in failing that try pushing the belt through the clip and unfold at the same time if that makes sense. Someone else may have other suggestions but the two I'll mentioned work for me. Cheers :) Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanA4 Posted October 26, 2017 Author Share Posted October 26, 2017 Thanks for the reply Steve, I was going to pretty much use brute force, unless some one has a little trick other than yours . My first car was an Escort, probably in bits now,no where near as good nick as yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanA4 Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 Just an update in case anyone has the same issue, all it took to rectify, was to move the slider down and give it a firm tug, all sorted then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
