The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Common on this vehicle:Seat beltAir bag did not deployWarning lightNoiseReduced brakingAir conditioning or heaterLeakLiftgate, rear glass or door lock

Record by record

32 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Symptom

Component named as the cause

Work done

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

SEAT BELTS15

  1. Manufacturer communication2001–2006 GMC YUKON DENALI ・ 2017-08-15

    Seat belt buckle operation and warning light issues

    1. 1Fault

      • Seat belt buckles do not operate and/or the seat belt warning light is on; the buckle is hard to latch or unlatch, or the release button sticks.

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • Sticky beverages spilled onto or into the buckle assembly; debris from food, candy wrappers, paper and coins can also contribute.

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      • Shine a light on the latch plate insertion area of the buckle and look for debris or foreign objects.

    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. If debris is seen, try to vacuum it out, then latch and unlatch the belt; if it works properly, do not replace the buckle assembly.
      2. If not corrected, inspect the buckle for sticky residue; if found, the buckle assembly must be replaced at the customer's expense.

      Caution

      • Never insert anything but the latch plate into the buckle, do not dig anything out with a tool, and never wash out a buckle to remove a spilled liquid because this may damage it.
      • This is not a manufacturing defect and is not covered by the new vehicle warranty.

    3. 3Correction

      Not stated

    Read the sentences of the record
    Cause
    Certain vehicles equipped with rearward folding head restraints on the second row seats. Two potential pinch points exist on each of the folding head restraints when the head restraint(s) are folded rearward as the seatback is folded down. If a person were to insert their finger(s) into the pinch point when the head restraint folds, it could trap and pinch the finger(s) causing injury. Correction: Dealers will install protective covers over the pinch points.

    Seat Belt Retractor Sensor Inoperative Recall

    1. 1Fault

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Certain vehicles fail to conform to CMVSS 209, seat belt assemblies. These vehicles have a condition where one or two sensors in the driver's and front seat passengers seat belt retractors may be inoperative. The seat belt retractors will lock when the belt webbing is extracted during a crash; however the mechanism that locks the seat belt retractor when the vehicle decelerates quickly, such as during heavy braking, may not restrain the occupant as intended during a crash, and could result in injury to the occupant. Correction update: None required as no effect on vehicle safety. See recall 04-158.

      Certain vehicles have an internal component in the 2nd and 3rd row outboard seat belt retractor that could be cracked. With repeated actuation of the locking mechanism, the crack could spread to the point where the seat belt would no longer lock. In a crash, increased occupant injury could result from the no-lock condition. Correction: Dealers will inspect the outboard seat belts for specific lot numbers and replace the belts if necessary. GM is enclosing an inspection procedure for the owners to use or they can have their dealers do the inspections.
