Seatbelt Retraction problems

Does anyone else have problems with their seatbelts retracting? I'd say about 50% of the time when I unhook my seatbelt it retracts but not all the way. I often find that I'll get the seatbelt stuck in the door. Is it the car or am I just really overly retarded (please don't let it be the latter)?

same here, now i make it a habit of putting the latch up by the head rest so it dont close it in the door and it makes it easier to grab when putting it on

Yes, call your dealer. That's something you should only live with in an old, used car. My seatbelts work perfectly. In fact, they retract a little too quickly sometimes and smack the buckle into the pillar.

I agree with the "Take it to the dealer" crowd - mine work quite well and I would not put up with it.

I had a Toyota Tundra that had weak retractor springs. I ended up damaging a door sill when I forgot and slammed the buckle in the door jamb. I ended up making them buy it back as a lemon, but the seat belts drove me crazy until they replaced them.
