Consumer Description

REF: ODI ID NUMBER : 10016221. I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2003 EXPLORER AS THE REFERENCED PROBLEM. WHEN I GET OUT OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT, THE SEAT BELT DOES NOT FULLY RETRACT. UNLESS I PHYSICALLY "THROW" THE EXCESS BACK INTO THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR GETS SHUT ON THE BELT. I HAD TO HAVE THE PLASTIC BUTTON ON THE BELT REPLACED BECAUSE THE DOOR BROKE THE ORIGINAL ONE.*AK
