In all the years of using our vehicle, we don’t usually pay attention to the seat belts condition. However, they are your lifeline when accidents happen. Below are some of the things you need to check regularly:
1. Webbing inspection
✔ The webbing should be flat throughout its entire length
✔ Ensure there is no plastic burn marks, frayed stitching and any signs of rippling
2. Tongue and buckle inspection
✔ The assembly between tongue and buckle should securely latch together with limited movement
✔ The tongue should eject actively when released
✔ Buckle should be intact with no visible crack on the buckle
3. Anchorage inspection
✔ Ensure all anchorage are free from corrosion and securely fastened to the vehicle structure
✔ All mounting points should not show any signs of deformation
Please contact your authorised service centre for necessary action should you find any non-compliance with this list.
