There was a recall for the upper retractors. The plastic cover that retains the clock spring comes off and the spring goes shooting across the roof under the headliner. If that's what's happened, you can try rewinding the springs and securing the cover with a bail made from a piece of coat hanger, or you can replace them.

That sounds like when your driving it could sound awesome. Lol
