Sticking seat belt?

Post by Mk2Adam »

hi guys

having a slight problem on the new G, got in the car today to go to work, grabbed the seat belt to find it was locked up right at the top so i could only pull it an inch, it was doing this ocaisionally whilst it was actually on but normally a quick move about and it'd release.

i ended up driving to work without a belt as i couldn't get it to budge, tried it when i got in and it worked fine :roll:

it occured to me that i was parked facing down hill when it broke and when i parked up today after work in the same place it locked in place again so does anyone know of any common problems relating to the belt locking when pointing downhill???? :?

any help would be apreciated as i don't really want a fine for not wearing my belt :P

Take a look at the reel. If it's not level, the belt will lock.
