Front Seat Belt Anchorage Problems of Toyota Avalon

When I attempted to secure the driver side seat belt of my 2005 Toyota Avalon after a shopping stop, I discovered that the bolt holding the seat belt to the car post had popped out and left the seat belt dangling and unusable. I surmise that it popped out when I released it after arriving at my destination. I immediately drove to the Toyota dealership where they reattached it. I do not know whether they used a new bolt or found the old one in the car.

I am concerned as to whether the seat belt anchoring system conforms with the seat belt standard. The car has a split bench seat, and can carry 3 passengers in the front. The right side passenger belts are anchored to the chassis - side and floor. The driver side has one portion attached to the seat runner, and the middle passenger has one to the seat as well. Should all belts be anchored to the floor or side pillar?.

The seat belt do not always retract when released thus damaging the door and preventing the locking apparatus from working properly. Nlm.
