Seat Belt Pretensioner
Just a post about my experience yesterday.
I was traveling around 45 mph and need to stop really quickly so that i didn't miss my right turn. After slamming on the breaks, the seat belt seemed to rewind about 8 inches within a second of me hutting the breaks hard. It caught me by surprise. It tightened up the belt and nearly took my breath away. Not sure if this feature is on all cars or just the Ultra, but it's nice to know it's there to hold you to the seat when the car senses something is wrong.
BTW, it didn't loosen up until i took the seat belt off and re-applied it. drove about a mile with the belt squeezing the life outta me!
