Replacing Restraint System Parts After a Crash If you've had a crash, you need new safety belts or do built-in child restraint parts? After a very minor collision, nothing may be necessary. But if the safety belts or built-in child restraint harness straps were stretched, they would be if as worn during a more severe crash, then you need safety belts or new harness straps. If safety belts or built-in child restraint harness straps are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision damage also may mean you will need to have safety belt, built-in child restraint or seat parts repaired or replaced. New parts and repairs may be necessary even if the safety belt or built-in child restraint wasn't being used at the time of the collision. If an air bag inflates, you'll need to replace air bag system parts.See the part on the air bag system earlier in this section, 1-60
