Check belt guide fittings and latch plates
Plastic-coated fittings show fine, parallel scoring after stress on belt system (when belt was fastened during accident). (On the other hand, wear caused by frequent belt use can be recognized by smooth wear, free of lines).
–  Inspect for deformation, fracturing and cracks in plastic.
l  If scoring and/or damage is determined, renew seat belt complete with belt latch.
