Hey guys. Anyone know how to fix the auto seatbelts?? My driver side is stuck....doesn't even sound like it is trying to work.

Don't say take it to Mazda for the recall....already tried that. lol. The recall expired for the 92 model 1 week ago, the guy said they are only kept open for 12 years. Also, my mx has a salvaged title, so they wouldn't have done the work for free anyways.

Would it be easier to replace them with a regular seatbelt, or just hit up some junkyards and find a motor??

Being that the seatbelt is REQUIRED for safety purposes-- it is supposed to last the lifetime of the vehicle.

They should still replace it for free.

Go back, raise hell, speak to the manager, then speak to his boss, then call Mazda directly if they still wont help.

With the recall... what do they do? My '93 should still be open for that.
I really want to get rid of these crappy auto belts though.

Call Mazda corporate Customer Service and get that guy's *** chewed out. Car dealership guys are all slimy *** scumbags. That guy just pulled all kinds of bull crap out of his *** to hand you, and you ate it all up.

yea, its a safety thing, its open the LIFE of the car, raise some hell

I just got them replaced in my daughters 92 MX 3 last week for free. No questions asked. Also needed a control unit (under the drivers seat) that I got at the junk yard for $2.54 US$.

The replacement is to go to the secured point on the I beam behind the door.

All canadian MX-3s came with that setup standard.

But yeah..scream at the dealer, and at mazda.
