Volvo Seat Belt Catch - Genuine Volvo 9191817

Product Information

A Seat Belt Receptacle (also called a seat belt buckle) is the part of a vehicle’s seat belt system that receives and locks the seat belt tongue (the metal latch plate at the end of the webbing). It is usually mounted on or beside the seat and contains a spring-loaded locking mechanism to securely hold the belt in place during normal driving and, most importantly, during a crash.

• Seat belt won’t latch – the tongue will not lock into the buckle.
• Seat belt gets stuck – difficulty releasing the latch when pressing the button.
• Intermittent latching – sometimes locks, sometimes doesn’t, which is dangerous.

About Genuine Volvo

The original parts used by Volvo to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Volvo” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Volvo, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Volvo Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Volvo are not necessarily manufactured by Volvo. No cause for concern, as Volvo designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Volvo for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Volvo parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Volvo logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
