Shredded seat belt = Warranted!


Recommended Posts

Took my 98 OBW to the local Subaru dealer yesterday to plead my case for new seatbelts and, after a bit of arguing, they covered the replacement!

 

I wish my powers of persuasion would've worked for the head gasket replacement a few months ago! :grin:

96+ has lifetime seatbelt warranty. I've used it on a few cars.

 

normal wear & tear is NOT covered under warranty, but if they're actually defective, then yes, they are. They had to make sure some sort of damage (dog chewing, etc..) didn't cause them to fray. They really examined them well for quite a while.

As I said my local dealer sucks, the two times I had mine done I did it at a dealer over an hour away. They're great, I just emailed detailed pictures of the damage and they approved me for repair.
