How do you retract rear seat headrests on 2006 clk 350mercedes convertible?
ELR - Emergency Locking Retractor..Seat Belt Retract you when you face collision.
You might try accessing the seat belt from the trunk. Pull aside the interior lining in the trunk ( which ever side the belt is on) and find the seat belt, give a gentle tug and see if that will release the belt. Mine does the same thing when the kids pull too far on the belt. If I took the time to investigate I'd probably find that the belt has been twisted and that's why it keeps getting stuck.
A seat belt that will not retract in a 1993 Altima might be twisted in the mechanism on the floor of the vehicle. This part of the seat belt mechanism should be taken apart and inspected. If possible, try pulling it out as far as it will go and then see if it will retract.

Have you tried to allow the belt to fully retract? The belt is designed to 'engage' the locking mechanism when fully extended -- you'll hear a 'click' when it reaches the end of it's reach. This is all so you can use the belt to secure in a child seat without using any extra clips and such. Pull the belt all the way out, hear the click, route it 'round and through the proper channels of the seat, pull it tight, and the mechanism will keep the belt tight and from losening, holding the seat secure. To release the lock, allow the belt to fully retract.
To fix a Toyota Sienna driver's side seat belt that is stuck, you might need to pull the entire belt out slowly until it is completely extended. Then, allow the belt to retract slowly.
