Auto seatbelt weirdness......

Ok, not sure if this is a problem with the auto belts of ignition or both. Occasionally, mostly when opening the driver or passenger door, the latch that slides back and forth will hang and stop while sliding forwards (door open position). The weird thing is that closing the door, the latch will slide to the door closed position. Ok, open the door and it will slide forward and stop short again. The fix seems to be to shut the ignition switch off, and the sliding latch will go where it needs to go.

Is this a problem in the seatbelt of the ignition switch or a bad ground somewhere? Anyone had this issue? I am sure I am not the only one...I hope...

Thanks in advance!
 
I would replace the ignition switch first....

When they go bad, they can cause all sorts of weird problems...

It's a cheap and easy fix....
 
ignition switch

i had already replaced the ignition not long after i got the car. the problem could be with the seatbelt motor, it is located behind a panel near the bottom of the rear seat. i would check there. that same problem happened to me also. but for some reason it was only during really cold weather.
