The seatbelt's entire functioning principle is based on the retractor, which is the device that allows it to tighten, reach the latch next to the seat, thereby securing the occupant, and when it is unbuckled, it automatically retracts. If this does not happen, it is almost certainly due to the aforementioned retractor.

Therefore, we need to disassemble the entire belt and the mechanism that manages it, removing the cover on the side pillar, which can only be accessed after removing the rear seats, as seen in the video; otherwise, the lower locking pin will not be reachable, unlike the upper one. After extracting it, the repair is carried out as shown by the protagonist of the tutorial video.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
