How often do seatbelts need to be replaced?
Some safety experts advise having seat belts inspected and possibly replaced after 10 to 15 years of use. One can never tell how older seat belts will stand up in the event of an accident. If the seat belts have a built-in indicator, verify that they have not been stretched during regular wear to warrant replacement.
Do seat belts tighten in a crash?
Car seatbelts have the ability to extend and retract — you can lean forward easily while the belt stays fairly taut. But in a collision, the belt will suddenly tighten up and hold you in place.
Can you replace car seat belts?
Replacing the entire seat belt assembly on your vehicle is easier then replacing a single part. When you opt to replace the entire seat belt, you do not need to take apart the old pieces to insert a new belt or to fix a broken retractor. Replacing a seat belt can be accomplished in a short amount of time.

Is there a built in booster in the Volvo XC90?
Volvo offers an optional built-in booster in 2C (2nd row center seat) that is fabulous in that in 5 seconds it can be there when you want it to be, or hidden when you don’t. If you’ll have kids age 6-12 riding in the XC90, we’d strongly recommend getting the built-in booster as you’ll likely find it very useful.
