Seat belt did not work ( retract) during a frontal car accident. In addition, the air bags did not open either. The car accident was a severe accident.

Rear belt loses tension when you install a baby carseat after pulling the shoulder belt in order to create tension on the lapbelt to hold the carseat tight. What happens is that there is a plastic piece that goes in the buckle connector, and when you apply pressure it breaks appart, giving no tension to the belt and the car seat can easily move forward. Please look at this pictures I took to show you clearly ww.vegena.net/jpg/neon1.jpg, www.vegena.net/jpg/neon2.jpg and....neon3.jpg, neon4.jpg, I fixed it temporaly by putting together the 2 plastic pieces and applying soft pressure so that they don't break loose. I applied this kind of "normal" pressure to my Dodge Caravan and the belt tighted great. My suggestion is to replace the buckle connector with the same kind that the Caravan 1997 uses. Thanks
