My drivers seatbelt only buckles when I push the release button in and "wiggle" the latch into position. The red seatbelt light stays lit on the instrument panel even when the seat belt is latched. Can this be repaired, if so how?

Hi there,

there may be a foreign body in the stalk ass, ask your mechanic to inspect and may be a light blow out with compressed air may dislodge anything, otherwise dont try and dismantle it. Get a new belt.
