New belt assembly.
I've seen it before on other aged Toyota's...it wears out with use. By then, the belt is fraying too. Safety first, replace it.

There was a recall/safety check on the tensioners. Both mine ('97) were replaced in the car's early history like sub 10K miles.

Yes unfortunately you must install new ones. I am having the same issue on my 95 on both front seats.

Default Seat Belts/Lexus Customer Service

Yup. Call Lexus Customer Service about the seat belts. They will give you instructions on what you can do to have the seat belts replaced. Use Search-- this has been discussed previously in the forum.
