Replacing Restraint System Parts
After
a
Cr
I
A
crash can damage the restraint systems in
your vehicle.
A
damaged restraint system may
not properly protect the person using
it,
resulting
in
serious injury or even death in a
crash.
To
help make sure your restraint
systems are working properly after a crash,
have them inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as possible.
If you’ve had a crash, do you need new belts or LATCH
system parts?
After a very minor collision, nothing may be necessary.
But
if
the belts were stretched, as they would be
if
worn during a more severe crash, then you need
new parts.
If the LATCH system was being used during a more
severe crash, you may need new LATCH system parts.
If belts are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision
damage also may mean you will need to have LATCH
system, safety belt, safety belt pretensioner or seat parts
repaired or replaced. New parts and repairs may be
necessary even
if
the belt or LATCH system wasn’t
being used at the time
of
the collision.
If an air bag inflates, you’ll need to replace air bag
system parts. See the part on the air bag system earlier
in this section.
