Twisted and jammed seat belt.

[Tomag70]

Somehow the right rear seatbelt got twisted and is jammed into the slot on the pillar where the belt retracts. Anyone know how to access the seatbelt mechanism or do I need to take the car to the dealer? 2020 Palisade.

dealer will pull and twist on seat belt to try and dislodge. If you can't do that then take it to dealer.

Did you get this resolved? Just happens to our middle bucket seat (driver side).

Same here and the dealer wants $200 to tell me it’s jammed

The same thing happened to my backseat seatbelt. I’m not sure how to fix it without taking it to the dealer. Any suggestions?

This issue is the worst. On our 2021 the right middle captains seat had this issue and took 3 months to fix and now the left captains seat has the same problem. I can't believe that it's impossible to untwist the belt. Has anyone successfully removed the panel where the belt feeds out in order to get in there to see? It's a shame that there is no shop service manual on the web.

I have had this problem a few times. The trick is to force the seatbelt back in to the housing. One millimeter at a time if neccesary. It's not easy. But eventually it will re-seat itself and break free.

I just had this happen to me twice. I fixed to today with taking a flat head screw driver and pushing the folded part of the seat belt, let’s say it is folded on the left side, to the left side cavity of the seat belt holder where it is a bigger space. Slowly to it took inch by inch as I forced it into that bigger space until the fold disappeared back into the seat belt holder. While use ding a flathead screw driver I also held the seat belt open so the fold got smaller and smaller as it retracted back into the car. Hopefully that helps

Mine has been stuck for few months now. The service center is charging like 250$. That's insane.

I removed the back plastic around the seatbelt. I used a flathead and went in behind the seal for the lift gate. When you get that off, the side by the window pulls towards the middle to release (it’s a pain in the butt). Then use a 9/16 wrench to remove the seatbelt guide and remove it. Then I just pulled it back and forth and it unfolded instantly. Hope this helps someone!!
