SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
How to Care for Your Seat Belt System
Due to severe conditions of use, commercial or
vocational vehicle seat belts can wear sooner than
those in passenger cars. The seat belt in a
commercial or vocational vehicle must be considered
to have a finite life and must be replaced as needed
throughout the life of the vehicle.
The seat belt and components must be inspected
regularly. Inspect the seat belt at least every 20,000
miles or more often if exposed to severe environ-
mental or use conditions.
If you have any doubts about the condition or
function of the seat belt system, REPLACE IT.
If any component or part of the seat belt system
requires replacement, the entire belt system must be
replaced. Use only OEM (Original Equipment
Manufacturer) approved seat belt systems or
components.
If a vehicle is involved in a significant accident, the
entire seat belt system must be replaced.
Any seat belt system that shows cuts, fraying,
extreme or unusual wear, significant discolorations
due to ultraviolet exposure, dusty-dirty conditions,
abrasion to the seat belt webbing, or damage to the
buckle, latch plate, retractor, hardware or any other
obvious problem must be replaced immediately,
regardless of mileage.
