Anyone have seatbelt problems?
I was just wondering if it was common for the 1990 lumina 3.1 seatbelts to not retract. I have to always manually do it but when i have passagners in my back seat and they do not retract their seatbelts they are stuck and i have to climb in the trunk and redo it all. Very fustrating!

Re: Anyone have seatbelt problems?
My 1991 Cutlass had loose rear seatbelts, but not so bad that you'd have to climb in the trunk to retract them. But they never retracted very well; I drove 700 miles from Maryland to Georgia with my rear seatbelt hanging out of the door and I didn't know about it.

yeah.....mine are not as bad, but my backseat seatbelts kinda do the same thing to. I just have to pull on mine a little and they themselves back up. The front ones are cool, thankfully.

Take out the seat belt spool, (the whole assembly that the belt retracts into) pull the belt out all the way. Spray just a little bit of wd40 or litium grease on the spool that holds the seat belt. Dont get it all over cuz you dont want greasy seatbelts. If you can, I dunno if theres a cover on there that you can safely take off or not, tear into the thing and clean it out.

Quote:
WD40 is not a lubricant per se as it protects metal from rust and corrosion, penetrates stuck parts, displaces moisture and, strangely enough, cleans grease, grime, and other marks from most surfaces. Therefore, if you want to lubricate the seat belt spool, use a silicone spray or grease, but not WD40.
