What do I do if my seatbelt won't click?
The seatbelt on the driver's seat of my car won’t click into place. I don’t want to drive around while it doesn’t work because it makes me feel unsafe. What do I do if my seatbelt won’t click?

Oh no! I’m sorry to hear about your seat belt, and I completely understand why you wouldn’t feel safe.
Seat belts are an essential component of your
car
and help keep you safe in the event of an accident. If you’re having problems with a seat belt that won’t lock into place, you’ll need to check if there is anything blocking the mechanism. Follow these easy steps to inspect your seat belt buckle.- Inspect the seat belt tongue to see if it’s damaged or dirty
- Check the buckle to see if anything fell in to cause a malfunction
- Remove the buckle from the car if it’s hard to reach
- Take the buckle apart and inspect the internal mechanism for any blockages
- Replace the buckle if you couldn’t fix it in the previous steps
Overall, it should be a fairly simple process to fix a seat belt that won’t click.
And like this simple fix, there is a way to easily make shopping for car insurance a smooth process: the car insurance super app
