Re: 2006 Malibu LS - Seat belt pretensioner & Air Bag light question
It is possible for the seat belt pretensioners to deploy without air bag deployment. If they did, they will lock in whatever position they were in when deployed (which explains the passenger side so tight). What type of scan tool are you using? Is it a generic scan tool only capable of reading PCM codes or can it read SIR codes as well? If the air bag light is on, there should certainly be codes set. You will most likely need to replace both seat belts, however knowing what codes are stored would verify that.
