Driver seat belts releases on its own especiall while driving. I stop and push metal clasp back into position, sometimes with force to make sure it is engaged. Sometimes it stays in place, sometimes not. I also check to make sure nothing is in the way of metal clasp before pushing it into the slot. I never know when it will pop back again undtil the light on the dashboard starts to flash. This has been going on for about 2 months.

My seatbelt won't click into the buckle and or release on their own has been happening for a couple of months and then have it eventually stopped working completely I cannot buckle my driver seat belt and one of the rear passenger seat belts has started doing the same thing I am about to go to the dealership and have them replaced before I get into an accident I would hate to find out that the seatbelt that does work now stopped working with my child in the car in an accident
Driver's side seat belt does not retract at any time.
The seat belt comes unfastened when driving down the street. This happens several times a week. You can pull and pull on the belt and it remains locked, but while traveling on the road, especially if one hits a bump, the belt unlatches and the light comes on and buzzer sounds. Went to junk yard to get a different latch and learned that their neighbor's 2003 toyota camry does the same thing. This needs to be investigated and fixed. Found same complaint on several complaint boards.
The seat belt buckle releases intermittently while driving every day trip and all the time for the past few months, when I put it on I redo it over and over until it latches properly. This happens every time I try to latch it.
My seatbelt buckle button doesn't want to release the seatbelt when I went to toyota dealership, they said it not cover under safety. I have to paid for repair.
