Seatbelt snaps not holding very well
 
Hey anyone else having trouble with the seatbelt snaps coming off? I can't seem to use them without my seatbelt opening up the snaps once I sit in the seat. It was fine when i first got the car but now it doesn't work so well.

Mine are working fine.. Maybe a *very* careful pinch with a pair of pliers?

Mine came with the seatbelt out of the snaps. Apparently some have had problems with the snaps on the seat ripping out. I'm not taking a chance.

I might have to give this a shot, that's a good idea :)

Mine work fine. I'd take it to the dealer to get it looked at.

I haven't felt a need to use them either. Funny thing is they come unsnapped even without the seatbelt in them. It catches the edge sometimes and pulls it up.

Mine pop out every once in a while, but usually when I'm getting out of the car and get it snagged on my arm/hand.

I had the issue the first few days because I would try and put the seat belt on with my left hand, I would pop the button every time.

I got in the habit of using my right hand to pull the seat belt down, problem solved. :happy0180:
