23008704 Volvo Trucks SEAT BELT

A seat belt basically restrains you during a collision. It's designed to stretch a little to absorb some of that impact energy, and then lock up tight to keep you from hitting the inside of the car—the steering wheel, the windshield, the dashboard, whatever's there. Newer ones often have pretensioners that tighten the belt instantly in a crash and load limiters that release a bit of tension to reduce chest injuries. They also keep you positioned correctly for the airbags to work properly. It’s a core safety feature, absolutely essential. It's part of the whole restraint system, working alongside the airbags and the vehicle's frame. Think of it as your first line of defense. It’s not something you see doing its job under normal circumstances, which is a good thing, but it's always there, ready to go if needed. The seat belt webbing itself, the buckle, the retractor mechanism – all of it has to work together flawlessly. Honestly, it’s about protecting yourself and your passengers. It's probably the single most effective safety device in a vehicle. You’ll notice if a seat belt is damaged or not latching correctly – it might be frayed, stuck, or the retractor might not work smoothly. A worn or damaged seat belt won't do its job properly in an accident. It’s really not worth taking the risk. If a belt has been stressed in an accident, even if it doesn’t look bad, it needs to be replaced. You can find replacement seat belts pretty easily; places like Fixparts Online carry a good selection. It’s a relatively inexpensive part to replace considering what it protects. Versatile and reliable: Seat Belt (MPN 23008704) includes a 12-month warranty!
