Seat belt roller/adjustment
Weird request....back story, took my GLE in yesterday to get battery issues addressed. I noticed when leaving the drivers seat belt felt “different” but I don’t drive often ( wife’s car).
She noticed it right away that is was harder to pull the belt. The front passenger has a roller the belt rides on but my drivers one does not.
My guess is they removed this trim to replace the battery, though not sure why, and it wasn’t put together back properly.
Can someone verify (pic would be very much appreciated) that the drivers side mirrors the passenger side? I am specifically looking for where the belt comes out of the belt height adjustment area.
Thanks in advance!

It looks like the entire insert that holds the adjuster and guides the belt, is not fully seated. See the gap at the bottom?
On my ML, I inadvertently raised that whole assembly and caused a bind. I was investigating an annoying rattle by my left ear.
I just pressed firmly downward on the adjuster, which re-seated the assembly and fixed my self-inflicted problem.
(But not the rattle.)

Multiple messages through the app indicating the charging system being “partially charged”. This was after driving it. At one point it was critically low and was dead which required a jump. I asked them to load test the battery while I had it in and it tested bad. $500 warranty repair - I wouldn’t want to be on the paying end of that repair.
i have seen other posts about battery issues so I will be closely watching the system to see my issue was an anomaly or something more common.
