Front Seat Belt Retractor problems of the 2001 Chevrolet Suburban

2001 Chevrolet Suburban front passenger seatbelt frequntly locks up and will not extend enough to secure a person. Seat belt often locks up when passenger is belted in and passenger cannot move.

Consumer states: shutting on and off the idle will go low and high and will itself shut off. Had work done to have it repaired, but only lasted a couple of months. Had the smell of gas. Also, seat belts on the second seats are not working properly. Can't pull the seat belts out, they are stuck inside of the wall of the vehicle.

Seatbelt retractor, rear door seal.

Passenger's side seat belt will start retracting while your driving without putting foot on brake. It feels like the seatbelt is sucking passenger into the seat. Consumer has contacted dealer, and they replaced seatbelt. Consumer is still having the problem.

Rt & lt front seat belt retractors pin passengers to seat for no apparent reason. The only way to get out, is to release the seat belt. When driver or passenger tries to move forward, seat belt restrains person and will not let them move freely in the seat. Seat belt retractors have been replaced and then will be ok for a time before they start restraining passenger again. This is a safety issue for the driver who is trying to check traffic out his side window and is a nuisance for the passenger who cannot move about in the seat. This problem encourages the occupants to not wear the seat belts because of the inconvience of being pinned into the seat. All of this is in normal driving situations and not in emerengency situations.

Driver's seat belt will not pull out. Has been replaced 3 times. Passenger front seatbelt will not pull out, replaced 4 times.

Right front passenger seat belt will pin the occupant in the seat so hard that you can not move. The owner was informed that this is a design feature to assist with restraining child safety seats. No one will ride in the right front seat due to the tightening of the shoulder belt. Please describe details. Mr.
