- The seat belt was sticking and I found a great way to get it back to great working order.
Seat Belts are important if yours is broken don't use it. If yours is just gooey from lollies and food this will help, if it is broken this won't help.

I watched your video and then tried to put the seat belt into the buckle and pushed the red button down just like what you showed and this worked. It would not go in until I pushed the red button and wiggle the male end until all of a sudden it went in. Still did not work right. Then I sprayed WD40 and worked it in and out and then it started to work like new. Thank you this video saved me a big headache. I really did not think this would work. So much for thinking.
I've gotten 2 seat belt tickets in a month...you just showed me how to fix it! It worked perfectly! Thank you Sir!
Thanks for the tip. Had to wiggle the end of the seat belt tip in and out and back and forth for about a minute and then BAM! FIXED. Thank you
You just saved me a huge headache. I was ready to remove the whole buckle. A bit of WD40 and Solved!! Amazing, thank you
Wow, I cannot believe a little bit of WD-40 just fixed the seat belt of my 04 Jeep Wrangler. As good as new now! MANY thanks!! =)
Best lubricant for such mechanisms is a dry lube aka PTFE spray. It contains PTFE particles (teflon) mixed with propellant. When propellant evaporates it leaves invisible, dry reducing friction residue. It doesn't contain oils, therefore won't attract dust etc.
Another lubricant would be silicone oil with PTFE, but this does leave oily residue, which may attract and accumulate dust and grime over time.
WD40 do work, but I advise against it, as it contains mineral oil, which may damage some polymers (plactics or rubber). Silicone oil is safer for polymers.
Wow,,5 minutes ago I made a appointment with Lexus thinking I have to replace mines,,a few sprays of WD40 and it works!! Unbelievable,, I don’t have to put my wife in the back seat no more
So glad it helped 👍
Dude thank you so much.
This literally saved me soooo much $$. I even took my car to the BMW dealership in Portland & they suggested “something might be stuck in there”
They didn’t even suggest this simple super easy fix. Thank you sooo so much.
I’ll actually feel safe driving my 🚗 now
Worked for me on my 2007 4Runner! Although I did have a similar problem with one of the other seatbelts and that turned out to be a whole lot of dog hair and other crud had gotten inside and had to be cleaned out. Similar problems but different causes. Thanks for the good tip!
Noticed my 2015 Silverado drivers seat belt was sticking. Watched this video and sprayed the locking mechanism with WD40 worked like gangbusters. Thanks!
Worked like a charm on my Tesla rear seat! Just make sure and keep wiggling it around so the oil could get in there!
I tried it with white lithium spray and it didn't work, so after watching this video I used wd40 and it worked! thanks man!
You saved me from wasting time locking for junkyard replacement. Thank You!
You, my friend, are a legend. Quick, easy and without cost…my favourite kind of fix👍🏻👍🏻
Worked perfectly for me and my 2016 yukon xl denali.
Thanks for the tip! You saved me from a trip to the mechanic. Used PB Blaster because that's all I had in the garage. Thanks again!
Just like the others have said…works like a charm after a quick spray of WD40!. You made my day! Thank you.
This worked for me as well. With the receptacle empty, there was a metal bar across the interior, as it would be when latched together. The oil frees up the interior sliding parts and in my case seemed to drag that crossbar back to its normal unlatched position out of sight. Many thanks!
Couldn't believe it was that simple. Work on my BMW 🙏🙏thnx.
Didn't think it would be this simple but it actually worked on my Tesla Model 3 as well! Thank you!
Having the same issue on my Model 3, with the buckle getting stuck when trying to release...will try WD-40! Tesla estimated $200 on the app to fix!
Did not work for my 2022 Challenger but thank you for sharing your info
Thank you so much, I have done this today and it didn’t work immediately but after trying it a good few times it did :)
I just want to say thank you so much, sir didn’t think it would work was having problems with my seatbelt on my dodge challenger for a while It was unlocking on its on while driving took it to the shop and they said it was going to be around $500 to fix it. You just saved me $500. Thank you. 😊🙏
Shops are robbery sometimes
Hell nah 500 is a rip off mechanics be tripping
The WD40 worked for me as well, as others have stated, saving me time and money for possible repair or replacement etc!! Great money saving video. I liked your video. Big Thumbs Up!! Thank You very much!!
Nice one, tried this wd-40 trick and it worked for seatbelt that would not latch in
This happened today on my x5. Saw this vid didn’t have wd; used Vaseline instead worked like a charm.
Thank you bro you just save me a lot of time and money
just added some teflon lube and works great now. Thanks buddy.
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCHHH!!! At first it wasn’t working and I was finna spiral out of control but den just like magic it started back workinggggg thank u thank u
I will try this even though I’ve purchased a new buckle for £40… if this works then fantastic as I’m going to give it a try
I use a little contact cleaner like the stuff to use for electrical circuits and then I did a little silicone grease works perfect
Thank you! I used wd 40 silicone lubricant (all I had) and it worked on my yukons driver's seat belt buckle!
Thank you I'm going to have to try this on my new to me 2010 Silverado 2500 driver seat belt buckle
This worked so well for me thanks!!!
Thank you!! Worked on mine that wasn't working for a long time.
Thanks, so simple, done wd40 and it's working again
👍🏼
Thanks Mark!
I used WD40 after I spilled soda on it. Works 👍🏽
Perfect mate. I was about to order a new one. Saved me.
Glad I could help
Thank you so much, you save my life ❤
Thank You
Thanks.
It worked! Xc60 2009
Yeah it worked !!
It worked ,, thank you
Somehow mine was stuck down a little. Sprayed with wd40 then leveraged up on it with a screwdriver and the thing started working as normal now lol
Just used wd40 silicone on my 94 celica and it's clicking like new again
Thank you!
You're welcome!
In my car, the red thing is very slow. If I press it, it takes 5 to 10 seconds to come pack up. Do you have any solution for this?
Yes watch the video. What I do there is a very good chance to fix it. MRT
Didn’t work for my keep renegade
So I sprayed it with lubricant and it will go in if I hold down the red release then plug it in but everytime I release the latch springs up to where it won't go in on its own. Any suggestions? Plz
Do I need to do the whole screw driver force the latch down part?
The lubricate trick is really just if you’ve had food or something sticky go in there. It sounds like something mechanical is wrong with yours. If in doubt replace it. MRT
2016 honda crv didn't work
This fix didn't work for me. But that's because i found one of my wife's fake nails jammed inside. At least its lubed well now!
Mine is a RAV4 2018 and still didn't work
With seatbelts you have to make sure they are spot on. You might have something mechanical broken or bent. When this happens you need to replace it. MRT
@@Marksreviewsandtutorials thank you
Can I use baby Oil for this?
I wouldn't use anything that is likely to attract dirt & grime
