What can happen

Safety consequence

SEAT BELT MAY LOOSEN WHEN EXTENDED COMPLETELY FROM THE NON-LOCKING RETRACTOR, EVEN THOUGH IT IS BUCKLED AND ADJUSTED SNUGLY. THIS ALLOWS THE FREE END OF THE BELT TO CREEP BACK INTO THE RETRACTOR WITHOUT WARNING. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: SEAT BELT MAY NOT PROPERLY RESTRAIN OCCUPANT IN EVENT OF A SUDDEN STOP OR ACCIDENT.

What fixes it
