Unable to Buckle one of my Safety Belt

[Megaweb]

One of my safety belts ( behind seat ) has problem to buckle. Any idea should I send it to C&C to repair or purchase new one ?

 

Car is Kia Rio 1.4M.

 

Thanks.

If your car is still under warranty just go to AD and have it changed/fixed if not just go somewhere else.

go back C&C if still under warranty... this kind of things don't play play... pls don't save money on safety...

safety belts will fail sometimes..... dun always assume it always work

 

the most impt thing drivers must have in car is a small penknife, within reachable distance when u are sitting down.

 

in case of accidents or emergency when yr safety belts cannot be released, reach out for the penknife and just cut it off.......

 

Yr life can be saved by this little penknife.....

 

imagine, u driving, then u realised yr car suddenly skidded and landed in a river or canal, full of water. u tried to release yr belt, but it got stuck or spoilt. And the car is slowly sinking into the deep waters.

 

What do you do?

 

the little penknife will come in very handy........

Make sure its the correct buckle that you are trying to put in. Rear buckle got marking for center which will not fit the belt for the side.

 

If its the correct buckle and the belt just refuse to go in, usually a squirt of WD40 into the hole will loosen it up. Remember to place a piece of tissue paper to absorb the run off at the bottom of the buckle.

Only the center one is having the problem. I tried 2 buckles and both cannot fit. Insert in and no lock. Guess something loose and unable to lock the buckle.
