Three. Of the three, two have been thrown out. One didn't fully make it out of the truck. The fire department found him in the passenger floorboard with his seatbelt still around one of his legs. He walked away once they cut him out though. The other friend got thrown into a bunch of trees, which stopped the truck from rolling over him. He hopped away with a broken ankle and a concussion.

Oh, glad they lived, I had a good friend in 8th grade was riding with his brother, they hit the soft shoulder and rolled the truck. He was thrown out of the sunroof and the truck rolled over him. And my wife was in car that flipped before we started dating.

Back in the mid 90's my Wife rolled our Honda Civic into a ditch landing on the roof the seat belt held her in tight. We can laugh at this now but she called me from her cell phone while still buckled upside down in the car

I had the same issue today when I was installing deadener and attempted to work the ratchet mechanism a click or two at a time. I ended up lightly bolting the unit back on the wall in the upright position, worked the belt just a little and it let loose and released the belt without problem.

Default Passenger seatbelt Jam

recently I had my front passenger bucket seat jam up for no apparent reason. I had been in an accident 14,000 miles ago but had nothing seize up on me then. I was simply going to the store and when we got back in the seatbelt wouldn't budge from its current position which is pulled out about 24 inches, it budges 2-3 inches pulling but won't retract at all. I have a service appointment for saturday but I would like it if I didn't have to pay for it, but the bucket seatbelt mechanism looks tough to get to since I've never worrked there.
