The Mazda 3 Seat Belt is designed in such a way that the drivers and passengers are held in the seat during sudden stops or car crashes, and this cuts down the risk of severe injury or ejection. It is accomplished using four coordinated components, the polyester webbing stretching over the body, a spring-loaded retractor permitting the fabric to slide until it hits the target and latches within milliseconds, a tongue sliding into a buckle, and the buckle itself, which releases at the press of a button. The system also positions the occupants by spreading crash forces across the chest, hips, and shoulders to deploy the airbags correctly as well as prevent ejection. In the 1950s belts were optional extras; however, regulations of the 1960s transformed them into a standard, and the same was reflected in Mazda production. Racing even opposed belts until SCCA rules in 1954 proved them to be worthwhile. The lap designs were made up of a single waist strap in the early days, but the current usage is a three-point design that includes a diagonal shoulder to achieve a more balanced load distribution. The Seat Belt is made with tough webbing that is rated over 28 kN and therefore will not tear even in high-speed crashes. In the present day, Mazda cars are fitted with height-adjustable anchors and pyrotechnic pretensioners that tighten the belt when mishaps are detected by crash sensors. In the existing Mazda model, such as the sporty 2024 Mazda 3, the Seat Belt is compatible with various airbags as the primary restraint system that offers the first line of defense each time the ignition switch is turned.
