Model 3 and Y Seat Belt Adjuster Rattle Fix

Matthew Budraitis |

From what we've seen on the forums and video comments, a lot of Model 3's and now Model Y's have a minor rattle coming from the seat belt adjuster area on the driver's side. It typically only happens when the seat belt is in the bottom position and you're on a rougher road, but it is an annoying buzz right in the driver's ear.

After Tesla failed to fix it on our Model 3, I made several attempts with felt tape (paid link) in various places, but I'm happy to report I've finally resolved it for good. The fix is pretty easy and only takes a few minutes.
