Lap & Shoulder Belt, Center

Seat belt assemblies and all their attaching hardware components require inspection after any collision including retractors and buckles in addition to the belt tension sensor (BTS) and front seat belt buckle support assemblies (slide bar) and seat belt shoulder belt height adjusters and child safety seat tether bracket assemblies and automatic locking retractor (ALR) for child safety seats in passenger seating positions. The install of a new seat belt assembly becomes necessary whenever a damaged belt or any incorrect operation occurs during Functional Testing processes. The risk of critical injury or death during a crash will increase if sheet metal repairing fails to reach its structural condition before any new seat belt assembly and attaching hardware installation. The installation of new belt systems that contain retractors along with buckles and height adjusters must take place whenever driver or front outboard passenger pretensioned seat belts go off. Seat belt assemblies require periodic checks for any potential damage that could impact their functionality together with proper operational tests mostly after enduring high-stress situations. An inspection of the seat belt mounting areas must take place before new belt assembly installation since you may need to reshape deformed sheet metal. Proper installation instructions should be followed to install new seat belts after which a Functional Test needs to be performed.

New safety belts should be installed at any seating positions where deployment occurred and the safety belts were used.
