Car seat broke seat belt ??

Hi all, I removed the car seat and re installed it as I had feared that I had previously installed it wrong. A week later I went to put my toddler in and the seat belt has been snapped from the fixed above. I removed it and re installed the car seat to the other side until we have this belt fixed. However a week later and the same thing has happened. No wear and tear on the belts whatsoever prior to this. Followed instructions on how to install. Also worth mentioning that we park on a drive and residents have had their cars broken into recently. Anyone seen this before ?!

God that's worrying! Thank goodness you didn't have an accident with it nearly broken like that.

Are you worried it's been damaged by the child seat or something else? It might be worth taking it to a garage and having all the seatbelts checked for peace of mind.

What car seat is it? Is it one with a clamp that goes onto the seatbelt?
