Guys
Just bought a 95 LS400 with 139xxx miles...Both front seat belts have retracting problem...It won't go back into the track...Belts seems all loose, not sure what the problem is...Any suggestions on how to fix it?

 

No one else is having loose seat belt problem??

 

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.

 

Seems like i am going to have to install new seat belts assembly on both sides!!

 

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

 

call lexus customer support 1-800-255-3987...they will give u instructions

 

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.

 

I Can't find a replacement for the driver side. Would a passenger side seat belt assembly work?

 

No. The passenger side assembly is different.

You can have your belt rebuilt by services online if you can't find a used one, or maybe you can try cleaning it first


An example of a rebuild service (may not be applicable if you don't need the pretensioner replaced. You may need the retractor repaired)

The repair link you sent me is a different thing, for some reason I get a bunch of different things when I search up the seatbelt assembly. I have a link for the passenger seatbelt. But I can't find the driver side

You're probably having trouble finding a driver side belt assembly because most of them are already FUBAR because they're the most used.

The Safety Restore link works for me.

 

The safety restore link works for the assembly in the link I sent? Even though it looks different?

 

I would recommend cleaning your seatbelt first, and see how that goes..

The Safety Restore link should be for a general repair service. I sent that one because I don't know what's bad with your unit

I should note however, that link may not be the solution for you

You may just need the retractor repaired / rebuilt. Probably worth searching online

I'll update my post to reflect this more accurately

 

I don't understand the question. The link you posted previously is for an ebay listing. Not for Safety Restore.
