Jeep Wrangler: Seat Belt Systems / Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure
Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted
lap/shoulder belt.
- Position the latch plate as close as
possible to the anchor point.
- At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) above
the latch plate, grab and twist the seat belt
webbing 180 degrees to create a fold that
begins immediately above the latch plate.
- Slide the latch plate upward over the folded
webbing. The folded webbing must enter
the slot at the top of the latch plate.
- Continue to slide the latch plate up until it
clears the folded webbing and the seat belt
is no longer twisted.
Enter the vehicle and close the door. Sit
back and adjust the seat.
The seat belt latch plate is above the back
of the front seat, and next to your arm in the
rear seat (for vehicles equipped with a rear
seat)...
In the driver and outboard front passenger
seats, the top of the shoulder belt can be
adjusted upward or downward to position the
seat belt away from your neck...

Refer to the maintenance plan for the required maintenance intervals.
