Abstract
A seat includes a seat back and an airbag mounted to the seat back. A seatbelt webbing has a shoulder band and a lap band. The airbag is inflatable to an inflated position between the seat back and the shoulder band. When the airbag is inflated, the airbag exerts a force on the shoulder band to loosen the shoulder band across a chest of the occupant, e.g., during an angular impact in which the momentum of the occupant urges the shoulder and chest of the occupant to turn into the shoulder belt.
