As clearly explained and shown in the video available here, one cause of malfunction is the return spring, which is the device that, once the belt is released after being fastened, retracts it to store it in place. Accessing this mechanism requires removing the trim cover from the side pillar and then removing the locking pins of the entire seatbelt, followed by necessary repairs and replacements.
