It turns out my issue was a little different - the seat belt had become hung up on a plastic thing under the cover. But because of your video, I wasn't afraid to pry off that housing and figure out what the problem was. Thanks!

Wow that was a really nice video; thanks for posting it. I am going to try it sometime on my car. The only problem is finding the time to do it.

great stuff thanks.

Me and my 5 year old son are going camping thank you so much the last time it kept scaring away the deer or it was terrible thank you so much

thanks worked great thanks

Thanks for the video. Ya it might be one of your older vids, but it still applies today! Thanks brother

Thanks great video

One thing about these videos, if you forget how it came apart, you can watch your own video to recall which washer went on first, etc.!

Thus is a. K I C K - V I D E O ! ! ! Thank you!!!

thank you for your ideo, is a real great help

this was awesome

Good video! Thx

very helpfull

Test the motion BEFORE putting the cover back on, no?

Good video bro!!

I saw a guy do this. The water and soap that the other guy used lubed the mechanism a little. I just pulled mine all the way out and shot some wd40 in there. Works a lot better now. It's just as good as this and the other guys fix but a lot easier.

By te way - good camera angle and lighting!

Nice video. In addition to cleaning, I'm wondering if there isn't a way to get a little more tension in the retracting mechanism. Does it have a coil spring in it? Would it be possible to tighten that spring a little bit to get a more aggressive retraction?

cool, ill have to do it to,

It would be a good idea to change the water a couple of times - just as your washing machine does. Maybe add some soap?

Why not remove the tether thing so you can put the entire belt in the solution (or almost all of it)?

I just show it a picture of Rosie O'Donnell.

lame fix, cleaing the webing does not repair a weak spring. The spring still needs to be replaced

The belt in my 2K Dodge Dakota doesn't retract at all!

How can I release the middle seat belt in the back it's stuck

If I hear "right here".... One more time 😑

If you just rotated the bit at the top it would have straightened it out!

Dude with this type of material is hot water and laundry detergent in a bucket for a couple of hours.

It doesn't woke because of all the grim and dirt! pull it alll the way out , clamp with vise grips ,drop it into a bucket of warm soapy water for 30 mins. let dry and good as new!!

8 hours = 20 minutes 👽

Now change that nasty seat

What is the connection between retracted seatbelt and dirty seatbelt?... Why washing the seatbelt will make it fixed......can someone explain to me... Don't it cause of the mechanical problem?

I tried this. It didn't work.

it doesn't work if you have 2 doors

Unsold cars sold dirt cheap

Wrong

There are much better videos on the proper way to clean and lubricate the seat belt system. Good effort poor results.

Im going to have to try this trick. Mine still retracts all the way but does act sluggish... I have a 2012 Subaru Forester.
