Safety Belt Extender

If the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you, you

should use it.

But if a safety belt isn’t long enough to fasten, your

dealer will order you an extender. It’s free. When you go

in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, so the

extender will be long enough for you. The extender will

be just for you, and just for the seat in your vehicle that

you choose. Don’t let someone else use it, and use it

only for the seat it is made to fit. To wear it, just attach it

to the regular safety belt.

Checking Your Restraint Systems

Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder light

and all your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and

anchorages are working properly. If your vehicle has a

built

-in child restraint, also periodically make sure the

harness straps, latch plates, buckle, clip, child head

restraint and anchorages are working properly. Look for

any other loose or damaged safety belt and built

-in child

restraint system parts. If you see anything that might

keep a safety belt or built-in child restraint system from

doing its job, have it repaired.

Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you in a

crash. They can rip apart under impact forces. If a belt is

torn or frayed, get a new one right away.

If your vehicle has the built

-in child restraint, torn or

frayed harness straps can rip apart under impact forces

just like torn or frayed safety belts can. They may not

protect a child in a crash. If a harness strap is torn or

frayed, get a new harness right away.

Also look for any opened or broken air bag covers, and

have them repaired or replaced. (The air bag system

does not need regular maintenance.)
