Right rear seat belt retraction system is locked up, preventing use of seat belt.

Rear seat belt would twist whenever it retracted. It would jam up & could not be released. Been repaired by the dealership at least 5 times, but it still would happen.

Both of the rear seatbelts have had problems retracting the belts, and they easily tangle in the retractors, locking up for periods at a time. I have had one set completely replaced on 7/21/99, although they both still occasionally malfunction. I believe this is a safety issue that calls for a redesigned part.

The left rear seat belt retractor has been replaced 3 times and the right rear seat belt retractor is going to be replaced the second time as soon as the parts come in. I am worried about the safety of our two children in the back seat and am tired of making trips to the dealership. We have owned the car less than a year and have been to the dealership the following dates to either have seat belts ordered or installed- 7/20/99 - 8/10/99 - 8/30/99 - 9/3/99 - 12/30/99 - 1/14/2000.

Rear seatbelts fail to retract on a regular basis; have been replaced twice - no improvement; problem is t-slot in which seat belt binds.

We have had ongoing issues where the passenger and driver seat belts (5 total) do not extend or retract properly. The dealer continues to blame the user although they did replace one mechanism as it would no longer retract or extend. We have taken it in several times as well as called the olds customer service to file a complaint. They refuse to do anything more. They also tell me to learn how to use them! how can guests as well as my family members all have the same issue? many times we are unable to use the seat belts as we can not get them to move in or out to put them on. The dealer and customer service line stated that the seat belt issue was common amoung olds and cadilacs. I don't feel that the manufacturer is solving this issue by letting be a common issue! seat belts should function. Please also note that we have a Saturn (1999) that has never had an issue as well as drove a Chrysler k car for 10 years without a seat belt incident. I resent the dealer and customer service department for Oldsmobile inferring that we were the issue and needed to learn how to use a seat belt. They did not deny that they didn't retract or extend properly. Also please note that while the seat belt is in place that they often tighten up to a very firm hold and don't release. This is dangerous for my 14 year old and anyone who is wearing them.
