we have 1998 lumina 4 door; tonight when we got home, my husband got out and started to close the door but got the seatbelt stuck in the door. The door wouldn't close and we looked and saw that the latch had popped down preventing the door from closing. we tried to pop it back in place but nothing happened. how can we get tihis latch to pop back into place and get my door to close?

You may want to lift the door handle while prying the latch back to the open position. There should be pressure when moving the latch but not so much that your husband can't move it.
