What owners say
After buying 1994 toyota corolla in 2003 from a used car dealer the seat belts appeared to be loose. The passenger side seatbelt no longer retracts back into the holder. Small passengers are not protected as the seatbelt will not hold them tight. The drivers side belt is difficult to pull out, and is beginning to not retract as well. What can I do? The dealer wants $140.00 for each replacement belt.
All 4 seat belt retractors lock up at times, and you can't pull the seat belts out to put them on. Eventually, they will unlock, but they will continue to lock up from time to time.
