Seatbelt Height Adjuster

A seatbelt height adjuster lets you move the upper belt anchor up or down on the B-pillar so the belt fits correctly across the shoulder.

What is Seatbelt Height Adjuster?

The belt should cross the middle of the shoulder, not the neck or upper arm. It is usually found on front seats. Some cars adjust belt height through the seat design instead. Make sure the adjuster clicks firmly into place after moving it.

How it works

A sliding anchor on a rail in the pillar locks in several positions.

Why it matters for your car

Check the belt position whenever a different driver uses the car. A belt across the neck can cause injury and discomfort.
