V70 rear seat belt problem

[mybrainhurts]

After collapsing the rear (single) seat back, the belt has jammed and it's impossible to put the seat back up.

Been trying to free it on up and down inclines and tried an emergency stop, but it's still stuck.

Anybody know if this is a DIY fix...?

You need to be in the boot with it shut. Text us when you're in and we'll send you phase 2.

Hope this helps.

Wrong, Volvoist...

Tom's toes are on Tom's feet...

next time pull a load of slack through before you unlock the seat.

I've had to pull the bolts out a few times now.

As a matter of interest...

Re access to the bolt...

There's a removable piece of trim that runs from the seat cushion and up the wheel arch, just over a foot long and six inches wide.

This pulls out from the top and allows easy access to the bolt.

Deep joy...

there should be a plastic button through the seat belt to limit the travel into the seat,they can break of and cause the seat belt to lock on.;)
