Seat belt roller failure. Came home from running a few errands, car has about 43k miles on it, and I noticed the seat belt would not retract fully. I tried to pull it and get it to function correctly, but it wouldn't budge in or out. After a few tries, I managed to get it to release fully, but it still will not retract fully. Seems like replacement of the roller is needed to repair.

2003 vw Gti airbag light came on without an accident, collision, bump or crash and stayed on all the time, this condition makes the airbag system inoperative at the time of a real collision, I belong to a vw club ( vwvoertwx. Com) and this seems to be very popular issue among vw Gti two door, technically this has to be a manufacturing defect that vw should be obligated to correct.
