Tear in Seatbelt
Last night I was securing a chilseat on my coupe's rear right seat, and one of the guides used for securing the seat poked through the seatbelt and made a tear on it! It's about 3mm long, but if I keep pulling on it, it gets longer. What do you think my chances are of MB replacing the seatbelt under warranty? I know that Honda and other manufacturers have lifetime warranties on seatbelts, regardless of the nature of the damage.

What has been happening that you're on your fourth seatbelt? No accidents, I hope.
