SEAT BELT BUCKLE : Inspection

INFOID:0000000006217630

AFTER A COLLISION

WARNING:

Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attached hardware after any collision.
NISSAN/INFINITI recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced
unless the collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Fail-
ure to do so could result in serious personal injury in an accident. Seat belt assemblies not in use dur-
ing a collision should also be replaced if either damage or improper operation was noted. Seat belt
pre-tensioners should be replaced even if the seat belts were not in use during a frontal collision in
which the air bags were deployed.
Replace any seat belt assembly (including anchor bolts) if:
• The seat belt is in use at the time of a collision (except for minor collisions and the belts, retractors and buck-

les show no damage and continue to operate properly).

• The seat belt is damaged in an accident. (i.e. torn webbing, bent retractor or guide, etc.)
• The seat belt attaching point is damaged in an accident. Inspect the seat belt attaching area for damage or

distortion and repair if necessary before installing a new seat belt assembly.

• Anchor bolts are deformed or worn out.
• The seat belt pre-tensioner must be replaced even if the seat belts were not in use during the collision in

which the air bags are deployed.

PRELIMINARY CHECKS

1.

Check that the seat belt retractor, seat belt anchor and buckle bolts are tightened firmly.

2.

Repeat step above if necessary to check the other seat belts.
