My last one had very slow retraction on the front belts, the RR Sport I had they were really fast but in some ways, felt cheap because of it, perhaps the Range Rover seat belts are designed to retract slowly in a more gentile and classy way! THE INVENTOR OF THE TERM "FULL-FAT RANGE ROVER" :

Some cars (Volvo) have such quick retracting belts they hit the window. My RR's driver seat belt not only is slow but stops after a while and gets caught in the door, therefore it chipped the paint, damaged the tire pressure label and the door panel too!

I can just see the news blurb: First Toyota now Land Rover.
Land Rover just announced a recall of 185,000 FFRange Rovers due to a defect in the seatbelt retraction system causing inordinately slow retraction.Unsubstantiated reports claim at least 7 deaths due to Range Rover owners being bored to death waiting for the seatbelt to retract... Rolling with laughter


Seriously, though, good to know I have nothing to repair. This was already on my 'to do' list. Bad to know that it will stay this way. Neutral RRC 2Dr, RRC 4Dr,
P38, and LM
