Clean the cookie crumbs out of the receiving end of the seat belts. Not even kidding. You need some high pressure air. Or a pressure washer (ask around - pressure washer owners always are looking for a reason to use those things). I'm not being funny, if the belts won't latch, something is clogging the latch. Unless the male end of the belt is too short, or the receiving end is too short, and they just don't reach. In which case the operator my be the issue.
because of safety dangers, it is very hard to open with out pulling the latch. you will have to take it to a body shop or dealer to have them fix the latch
Did you mean SRS indicator? If so - any dealer will repair at no cost. (This is a safety issue and whould no be overlooked.) My Acura's front seat belt latches has to be replaced - both sides.
You really should just go to a salvage yard and purchase another latching mechanism, for safety reasons prying and shoving a screwdriver into the latch can be a temp fix that could interfere with safety later on down the road when you really need your safety belt...
take it to the dealer, saftey issue and replaved up to 100, 000 miles i believe......needs a new buckle assy and is probably also a pretensioner for airbag, so let repair facility replace
Normally if you take it in for regular service Gm would do this as part of the service, regardless the door failed tel them you will report it to the better business bureau and to the state industrial safety board and they will be sure it is handled, contact your local state board of transportation DOT and report it they will get something done, also tell the dealer what you are going to do they may change their mind.
If you mean that the buckle won't lock into the latch, or receiving part of the seat belt mechanism, yes. The latch probably needs to be replaced, but I would recommend having the dealer replace it so that the torque specifications and legal obligations are met. You might have something in it that could be cleaned out with compressed air, but you want to make sure it locks securely in the event of an accident.
Hi begoniababe, when you say not working do you mean it wont latch? if so it would be a safety issue and may be a recall check with your car dealer it may be fixed for free good luck
It didn't make it a complete fix, but now at least I can wiggle it and pull out a little and then it with click and lock!
