Stuck rear center seat belt

I had same issue which is related to the folding rear seat on the GLK as mentioned in the owners manual, but I found an easy, no-cost solution. If the dealer tells you the complete assembly needs to be replaced they are misinformed. Lift the rear seat bottom cushion to access the center seat belt anchor bolt and remove it to free the tension on the strap. With the seat back in the upright locked position, pry off the plastic trim piece where the belt goes into the retractor mechanism and just work the strap up and down till the tensioner releases on its own. Then I sewed a small black button 3 inches further inward from the existing button to keep the belt from retracting too far into the retractor mechanism, Reinstall the anchor bolt and lower the seat, should work fine.
