The winding spring breaks or comes loose from its mount. Sometimes you can disassemble the cover over the belt retractor and see what the problem is, such as a small rock or dirt holding up the mechanism. They can also just get worn out and must be replaced. The seatbelt may also get twisted inside the retractor and muck it up. While you are in there, clean and freshen the grease points.

Oldsmobile Intrique Rear right seat belt retractor?

How do you unlock the rear seat belts in your 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue?
There has actually been a recall on the 98 intrigues because of the rear seat belts. They have a tendency to twist as they are pulled into the automatic retractor, causing the retractor to seize up. Had the same problem with mine. All I did was slowly pull the seatbelts a little at a time. When they would stop, I'd let it back in again to unlock the retractor, then try again. Took some patience and time, but eventually got them out.As for the recall, I think if you go into your local Oldsmobile dealership service center, they'll install guides that prevent the seat belts from twisting.See: http://www.automotix.net/autorepair/recalls/oldsmobile-intrigue/
