Why can’t I pull my seatbelt?
To begin with, a seat belt can be stuck due to two reasons: a) the problem may lie in the retractor being locked, and b) dirt or grime may have accumulated on the seat belt, causing it to retract slower than usual and not all the way. For the latter, a simple cleaning will hopefully fix the problem.
