Functional Test - Seatbelt Retractor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford Focus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: All safety belt components must be inspected and corrected as part of any collision repair. Inspect all safety belt components as prescribed by Seatbelt Procedure After a Collision . Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect operation of the safety belt system and increase the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
NOTE: The seatbelt retractor must operate freely for extraction and retraction of the seatbelt webbing between full extension and in-vehicle stowed positions.
  1. Extract and retract the seatbelt between the full extension and stowed positions.
  2. Verify the seatbelt retractor operates without excessive effort or binding.
  3. Install a new seatbelt retractor if any concern is found or the complaint has been verified.
