Yeah I looked down in the seat belt latch and didn't find anything. I even probed around in it with a pick. I guess i will have to order one because I have seen what it looks like when you don't wear your seat belt and have an accident

So another problem with my CRD. I can click my seat belt in and make sure its in there good and pull on it to make sure its latched and its there. But take off down the road and at random times it just comes undone. Very unsafe! I think I'm gonna get another from a salvage yard should i have any issues with a different year model? Has anyone else had this issue? |

With a flashlight and a probe like a dental pick see if there is a piece of debris down in there preventing the latch from fully engaging the clip. Been there done that. |

Has anyone else had this issue? The buckle is not that expensive at the dealer if you need to get one(like $35 IIRC). I replaced one in my 02 and in my dads 04 with the same problem that your having. You just have to pull the seat to install it. |

Was telling the local part store guy about my seat belt issue he said "Ahh just spray some wd-40 down in it, should fix it right up." So after spraying it down with lub it works a ton better. I think i will still replace though I like safety features that I know work lol |

Did you end up replacing the buckle? Our drivers side one just started doing this, and no luck with the WD-40 fix. It takes about 5-10 attempts to get it to stay latched, and even then sometimes comes loose while driving. Anyone know the part number for the driver's side buckle? |

The WD-40 has seemed to fix mine, it now stays latched  . It still bugs me it was messing up though, I would hate for it to fail in an accident. As far as a part number I never got that far.
