 I beleive that seat belts are one of the most important safety features on a car and should last the life of a car. i am very surprised that the seat belts on this car started to show a failing trend at almost 40000 miles. both passenger and driver sides are failing, retracting and locking-up issues. passenger side completely failed yesterday, it is locked up. cost to fix is very expensive. .many fj owners are reporting the same problem, i encourage those with the same issue to file a complaint rather than posting it on fj cruiser forum. it should be a recall issue and toyota should assume such a responsiblity for fixing an important safety feature.

 2007 toyota fj crusier. passenger seat belt would not retract backward. the vehicle was taken to the toyota dealer who advised that because the vehicle was outside of the 6 year/60,000 mile warranty and no recalls, the repair/replacement of the passenger seat belt assembly was at my expense. the driver side seat belt is also showing signs of a weak retract and appears that it will also require replacement soon.
