There is a tech bulletin on the subject. In fact there are 2 on the shoulder belt restraint system. You can find the titles on http://www.alldata.com/TSB/19/91192054.html
but you have to pay to get the full Tech service Bulletin. Maybe you know someone at Autozone who can get it for you for free.
Lowe's has a Teflon spray that leaves no residue. It's in a spray can. Once it drays all that's left is teflon. You could try using this in the track to loosen up the belt.
There is a switch inside the door next to the latch. It is the switch that controls the shoulder belt. Mine tore up a while back. I wired in a manual switch. If I remember correctly, it switches to ground when the door is ajar, and to 'open' when door is closed.

What is a passive restraint?
Passive restraint refers to restraint devices that dont require any action on your part. Hence, Airbags. This is the only type of passive restraint I know about, but there may be others.
What is a passive restraint module and how do you fix it?
A Passive Restraint Control Module (PRCM) generally is usually a electronic component that activates a passive restraint such as air bags or automatic shoulder belts. For example, the PRCM in some models of Mercury Villager activates the front shoulder belt drive. When the ignition switch is turned on and the door is closed the door latch switch closes which signals the PRCM to activate the shoulder belt driver to move the shoulder belt buckle carriage from the front to the rear position. When the door is opened the door latch switch opens which causes the PRCM to activate the shoulder belt drive to move the shoulder belt drive carriage from the rear to the front position. Repair of PRCMs is generally not recommended for many reasons. Most are not repairable, and the consequences of a faulty repair could be fatal. In some cases a PRCM can be replaced by an experienced mechanic or automotive electronics technician with common shop tools.

One line in the service manual describes how the restraint cable must be lubricated regularly. Failing to do that the restraint system will do exactly what you describe. You can TRY lubricating the track, but it probably won't help now. If that doesn't work for you, your options are: replace the track mechanism or disconnect the restraint system.
