Default seat belt pre-tensioner problem ?

My seat belt pre-tensioner looks to have stopped working, i remember it used to nip up when when I put the seat belt on and drove off to take up the slack, should it pretension every time.

Can't say beyond it does not sound normal. Yes, it should generally snug up by itself.

Try pulling belt out all the way slowly a few times and then let it retract back in fully--in case it didn't wind squarely on the take up reel or some such. Beyond that idea, see the dealer for a possible warranty issue.
