It is vital to inspect seat belt components because a severe impact requires total replacement of the whole assembly starting from the outer belt progressing to the inner belt along with bolts and nuts up to the sill-bar regardless of whether the damage is visible. Start by examining whether the pretensioner activated after which conduct a diagnostic test followed by a visual inspection with the front seat outer belt detached to check the center pillar lower garnish for cuts and cracks and for marked discoloration and also inspect wire harnesses and connectors along with the center pillar deformation. Perform a diagnostic system check and visual inspection once more when pretensioner activation occurs then inspect both the center pillar deformation along with any wire harness and connector damage. The seat belt pretensioner needs replacement in every case where it activates during an event, encounters an issue during troubleshooting tests or when the front seat outer belt proves faulty through the Special Service Tool analysis and the front seat outer belt experiences a drop. Correct procedures are essential to follow for complete removal and installation operations of the front seat outer belt along with the seat belt pretensioner.

Manual inspection and repair of the seat belt system should always follow a collision. A seat belt assembly must be replaced completely when severe impact occurs even if no external damage exists. This includes both the outer and inner belts together with bolts, nuts, and sill-bar elements. The absence of pretensioner activation warrants a diagnostic system check and requires visual examination of the quarter trim panel and wire harness for cuts, cracks and marked discoloration and deformity inspection of the center floor No.3 crossmember. Conduct a diagnostic system check followed by visual floor No.3 crossmember inspection when pretensioner activation occurs. The inspection should also check for connector and wire harness damages. The seat belt pretensioner requires replacement under any of these circumstances: activation, discovery during troubleshooting sessions or front seat outer belt malfunction shown by Special Service Tool tests or belt drop incidents. The correct procedure must be followed for taking out and putting in the seat belt pretensioner system.
