    I own a 2005 toyota sienna van and have been bragging on it to everyone except for one big problem that has haunted me since 2016.

    Driver and passenger seat belts are not retracting properly when fasten. As a result, the seat belt has too much slack and this will not protect the occupants from an accident or bodily injury. The drivers belt also has become frayed.

    The driver side and passenger side seatbelts keep getting folded over and stuck while trying to retract. They stop retracting and get jammed. Sometimes the jam can be worked out, but once it had to go to the dealer and be taken apart. I am concerned that in an accident the seatbelt will fail since it can't properly hold when retracting or being pulled out. *tr
