| Description of the problem | The driver side seat belt sometimes fails to retract. When i pulled the belt out, it stayed out and would not retract. I inspected the area and found no interference. This happened on a sat. I drove the vehicle sat. And sun with a faulty belt. I called the dealers service dept. Told them the problem but couldn't get in for a week. In the meantime, the belt began to work again. The dealer said"bring it back when it doesn't work." i have a phobia not knowing when the seat belt will fail again. The vehicle is a 2004 toyota sienna. I purchased it new from the same dealer. Carmax in kenosha wi. I sent this same e mail to toyota. *jb |
