    Question Seat Belt Retractors GU IV

    My front seat belt retractors have lost a lot of "pull" so the belts stay slack when undone.
    The only remedy I have found on the web is to wash the belt, let it dry uncoiled. I have not tried that yet-thought there may be a real solution out there.
    Comments?

    So I did the wash thing with Palmolive dish detergent and water. Did not seem to do much good, but after a few days, the soap softened and now ---SUCCESS.
    My belts retract unassisted.
