# Service bulletin TSB 21\-2054

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

Some 2017\-2020 Continental vehicles may experience driver seatbelts locking up and difficult to extend. This may be due to the seatbelt retractor contacting the B\-pillar sheet metal causing the seat belt retractor to sit on an angle. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to add clearance between the seatbelt retractor and B\-pillar sheet metal.

- [SSM 46102](/bulletins/10109079.md), 2017-08-01, Service bulletin: SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR; SEAT BELTS. Some vehicles may have a concern where the safety belt retractor webbing does not extract from the stowed position or exhibits excessive pressure on the occupant during use. This may be due to a normal condition which happens when the seatbelt retracts at a high rate of speed. The Workshop Manual, Section 501\-20A General Procedures has been updated with a locked seatbelt retractor releasing procedure.
