After a very minor collision, nothing may be necessary.
But if the belts were stretched, as they would be if worn
during a more severe crash, then you need new parts.

If you ever see a label on the driver’s safety belt that

If belts are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision
damage also may mean you will need to have safety belt
or seat parts repaired or replaced. New parts and
repairs may be necessary even it the belt wasn’t being
used at the time of the collision.
