  1. Checked for the twisted belt, but it isn't that. The shoulder harness is fully extended, not a twist in sight. It's all just loose in my lap. Tried the window lock, the obvious stuff first, right?, but it wasn't that. So maybe clean the switch? Okay...I can do that. I have a manual. Do you think cleaning the belt itself might loosen dirt and grease and enable it to retract? How would I clean inside the console assembly? What about pouring soap/ammonia mix down there? Does that sound like a bad idea? It sort of does. Maybe make my car smell horrible and accomplish nothing. What bout this: just found this on another thread somewhere...too good to be true? I'm calling. Let you know... "Thank you for contacting Subaru of America, Inc. The seatbelt does offer a lifetime seatbelt warranty.

  2. Hi, I just bought my second new to me Subaru, it's a 1991 Legacy L, and the auto part of the seatbelt that goes up and down the door is just fine. It's the part that should be rolling up, making the belt tighten, that won't retract. The part between my seat and the passenger seat. How do I fix that? Any ideas? Also the passenger side window only rolls down if I use the master switch on my side (Bwah ha ha) and I was hoping that might be an easy fix. Otherwise, to heck with it. Except it might lead to bigger problems. So I ought a fix it now.
  3. Um...if you're still out there...I have a 1991 Chevy lumina that runs okay but won't go into reverse. You can have it. Clean title. Otherwise it's going to the junkyard cuz I can't afford to fix it. You can reach me at 206)335-4521 Laura
