Hi kevin311,

The seat belts have an inertia bearing which could be stuck. Put vehicle on level ground tug or jerk the belt to try and release it.

If it is due to a broken belt guide at the belt assy, you need to replace the set.

The cigar lighter is not related to the door indicator so if it affects it, there might be some wires or grounds near the radio that requires attention.

If the trans upshift is late with harsh shocks, check for trans throttle proper adjustment.

We need a better understanding of the lack of power problem before we can comment.
