Hi everyone,

New to this and looking for some help.

Basically, my rear middle seat belt is completely locked. This wouldn't be a problem since I could still carry passengers with the other seats but the seat was down when it stuck so I can't get the seat back up.

I took it to the local garage since it's still under warranty and they seem to think it is to do with the locking mechanism for when I would fold the seats up and down. I don't think this is the case as the seat is still moving fine until the point of the seat belt stopping it.

We only have one garage that covers the warranty and they can't get it booked in for another 2 weeks which is a pain since I carry passengers a lot of the time.

Would anyone have any idea's how to fix this?

I have tried everything, sheer brut force, feeding the seatbelt slowly to try and unlock it but still nothing.

Thanks for anyone who has any suggestions.

Hi, :)
not had issues with a centre belt.. but the normal pillar mounted ones are sensitive to gravity. park on a bank and they can keep locking.. quite possible yours did similar when seat was folded flat:eek:

:idea: I would try rocking it around - through angles..

you can go to ANY FIAT garage for Warranty work..;)

do let us know what you find out(y)
