National BackOrder for Seat Belt Assembly - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

912matthews · 12-10-2013, 08:12 PM

So, along with all the other people at some point on here. I'M NEW. And here's my story. 11 Days after buying my Scion FR-S 10 Series I was involve in a CRASH. A small bump, from another driver, on my back left lead to me spinning out of control and curbing my beautiful 86. A whole new rear suspension had to be put in along with new mags and wheels. Also the Driver Side Airbag curtain deployed. After 2 weeks the car is now fixed and ready to be driven! But...missing a Seat Belt/Seat Belt Assemble, the Toyota/Scion/Lexus collision center told me the Seat Belt Assembly is on a National Back Order. So tomorrow (December 10th) will be the 4th week without a car. Any ideas on what I should do? Anyone to call to get a possible ETA? NATIONAL BACKORDER!!! Having tons of awesome mods sitting in front of me and can't even put these bad boys on! Its Painful!

Get a harness bar and harness! Maybe someone who is parting out their baby has it.

Savannah GA? I spent 3 months there this year and didn't see any FRS except for the guy that lived down the street from me in Pooler. Have you met any other owners?

I thought about that but my seat belt is white...cause of the 10 Series edition, so I guess I'll just wait. And unfortunately not. I haven't seen any other FR-S drivers around. Im really interested in a car scene too, but no luck here in Savannah.

Isn't the seatbelt silver?

I got into a rear end collision in July 2012 and it took 8 weeks for parts to arrive because there were none in the US. Really sucks but the shop said it is pretty common for new cars. They had a Dodge Caravan they waited for months for a seat belt assembly. Hope it gets back to you soon.

You might be able to find one at a wrecking yard to tide you over....

DAMN! Looks like I won't be driving anywhere for Christmas/New Years. Guess I'll just keep sitting it out. Thanks

They didn't get you a loaner while being out of your car ?

Unfortunately not. I can't even rent a car because I'm only 20.

Thats lame, when my 2011 WRX was in the shop they let me drive around a loaner even though I was only 21-22 at the time

Savannah rocks. I have family down there.

Even if you're underage to rent a car, seems like the dealer should still give you a loaner. Fortunately, depending on where you live, you can get around pretty well on foot & bus.
