Within fractions of seconds, the pretensioners tighten the seatbelt. Under certain scenarios, the person may slide under a loose seatbelt. This is known as ‘submarining’. Pretensioners decrease the risk of submarining. Pretensioners are not the mechanisms to replace the conventional locking mechanisms of the seatbelt, but they work with these locking mechanisms.
A seatbelt pretensioner assembly is quite similar to a gun. There is a roughly 6-inch tube by the center console, under the seat. There is a slug with a pyrotechnic charge residing just behind, inside the tube. There is a cable attached to the slug. The cable is retracted inside the slug is propelled down the tube. The seatbelt buckle drops down a few inches when the pretensioner is fired.

Seatbelt pretensioners make sure that the front seat passengers and the driver are held firmly to their seats at the time of a crash.
