SEAT BELTS Safety Recalls

High Priority #14V266000 Plain English
Component

SEAT BELTS

Manufacturer
General Motors LLC
What Happened
The seatbelt on your vehicle uses a flexible steel cable to secure you in place. However, this cable can weaken over time and break, which could leave you unprotected in the event of a crash.
Risk if Unfixed
If the cable breaks, your seatbelt might not be able to hold you securely, increasing the risk of serious injury in the unlikely event of a collision.
Free Fix
Your dealer will inspect your seatbelt and replace the lap pretensioner if it's damaged, all at no cost to you. You'll receive a letter in July 2014, and once parts are available, a second letter will follow, so be on the lookout for those notices.

Manufacturer
GENERAL MOTORS CORP.
What Happened
Your seat belts have a small cover that can sometimes get pushed down when you fold and unfold your second row seat. This can expose a crucial button that releases the seatbelt.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, the seatbelt might not restrain you as it should during a crash, which could lead to serious injury.
Free Fix
Your dealer will adjust the seat trim shields to prevent this issue. If the seatbelt buckle is damaged, they'll replace it with a new one, all for free. You should contact your dealer as soon as possible to schedule the repair.
