Default Seat belt retraction 92-95 civic and 93 del sol.

On both of my eg civics and now the del sol I bought for my g/f the drivers side seat belt has a hard time retracting. The guy I bought the del sol from said honda had a recall on the seat belts to fix this problem. I was wondering if anyone has this problem and is there an easy fix for it? I know on my last hatch the one time the belt pulled all the way out and I stuck a screw driver in there and it finally wound back up.

Any suggestions would be great.

Go to a dealer. They will replace worn/broken seatbelts for free for life.

My helms manual says if your seat belts don't retract, just take some q-tips and clean the belt guide by your shoulder that the belt slides through. I read that, and took a look at mine, and couldn't believe how much hard gunk buildup there was. I didn't have any alcohol, so I havn't cleaned them yet...

But I would try that first.

That's what the guy at the dealership told me.

Think about it...if they turn you down to repair the seatbelts and you get into a horrible accident and the belts fail, you could sue the **** out of them. The cost of replacing the seatbelts is miniscule in comparison to the lawsuits that could be brought up against them.
