Alright this may sound dumb but i think my seat belt is broken. in all of the other cars i have driven when you yank the belt with your hand it stops. When i was having the trans fixed i asked the dealership to look at it because i thought for sure it was broken. They said it was fine and that the only way to make it work was to hit the brakes. Is this true in our cars?? Should i go 20 down the road slam the brakes and pray my face doesnt become one with the wheel?

 

iv onley noticed it grab when u hit the brakes so i think ur allgood

 

There is a pendulum type gripper that swings and grabs the belt when the brakes are applied. I took mine apart cuz I'm an idiot.

 

I thought the same thing, Nater.
That is..until I had to hit the breaks hard to avoid hitting a dog.

Turns out they work after all

 

i never wear my seatbelt I know...I'm dumb but oh well I'm pretty sure it does only lock when you hit the brakes though

 

i just want to pass inspection at the track

 

well oc doesn't check stuff like that make sure you get something to hold down your battery last time I was there luckily I had a bungee cord in my car so I didnt have to go all the way home, and one of my friends didnt have one to so I lent him my belt lol. my 92 used to be bolted into the battery tray but not my 89 for some reason

 

my seat belt does work, kick ***
