or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not
disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be
replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn
webbing, etc.).

belt in the event of a collision.

injuries if you are not buckled up properly. You can strike the interior
of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the
vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled up
properly.
