What’s the box under the seat that controls the seatbelts locking up called?
My passenger seatbelt never locks up under hard braking and my wife has been complaining about it. Does anyone know what that is called so I can find it online? Or if you have any other suggestions on why my pass. seatbelt doesn’t lock up. Thanks

it should lock with a quick pull by hand. Its built into the retractor of the seat belt...nothing to do with the orc module or pretentioner.

Isnt there a box under the seat that locks it when the truck is experiencing heavier than normal G forces? (Hard stop, evasive maneuvers, rollover)

Yup. Belt should also lock when you step on the brake.

Drivers side locks under braking about 80% of the time and the passenger side never does. What should I check out first for this issue?

Electrical connections between the box, and the belt.
