Record by record

1 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

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.

Known issues2nd row center seat belt routing (lap belt fit) - recall 05V-1631

  1. Recall2003–2005 GMC YUKON ・ —

    2nd Row Center Seat Belt Routing Recall

    1. 1Fault

      • The seat loop at the second row center seating position may make it hard to position the lap portion of the safety belt low around the occupant's hips; in an accident a lap belt that is not low and snug on the hips may not restrain the occupant properly and could raise the risk of abdominal injury.
      • GM states it is not aware of any incident in which this condition has been alleged to have caused or contributed to an occupant injury.
    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • The 3-point belt for this seating position was designed and validated for the 2003 model year GMT800 utilities and crew cab pick-ups without a loop on the seat around the lap belt webbing.
    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. Dealers eliminate the seat loop by removing the safety belt from the loop and stitching the loop closed.
      2. Remove the nut retaining the rear center seat's lower seat belt anchor.
      3. Remove the belt from the seat loop on the front of the seat back cushion.
      4. Route the belt outside the seat loop and install it on the lower anchor stud, making sure the belt is not twisted.
      5. Install the retaining nut to the anchor stud and tighten it to 53 N·m (39 lb ft).

    Cause
    ON CERTAIN CREW CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE 2ND ROW CENTER OCCUPANT SEAT BELT ROUTING MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO POSITION THE LAP PORTION OF THE SAFETY BELT LOW AROUND THE HIPS OF OCCUPANTS, ESPECIALLY SMALLER OCCUPANTS, SEATED IN THIS POSITION. APPROPRIATE USE OF A CHILD SEAT OR BOOSTER SEAT, AS RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, DOES IMPROVE THE FIT CONDITION FOR THIS USER GROUP. IN ADDITION TO INSTRUCTIONS ON PROPER INFANT AND YOUNG CHILD RESTRAINT (WITH CHILD SEATS OR BOOSTERS), SPECIAL VERBIAGE FOR RESTRAINING OLDER CHILD IS INCLUDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. ALSO, THE SUGGESTED SEAT BELT FIT/ROUTING FOR ADULTS, IRRESPECTIVE OF SEATING POSITION, IS DESCRIBED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL TEXT.
    Remedy
    DEALERS WILL CUT OPEN THE GUIDE LOOP, REMOVE A PORTION OF THE LOOP, AND THEN THE REMAINING TWO SIDES SHOULD BE FOLDED OVER AND SECURED WITH A RETAINER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 21, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, OR HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493.
    Consequence
    A LAP PORTION OF THE SEAT BELT ROUTING THAT IS NOT LOW AND SNUG ON THE HIPS CAN ALLOW THE LAP BELT TO RIDE UP ON AN OCCUPANT'S ABDOMEN INSTEAD OF FITTING LOW AROUND THEIR HIPBONES, AND THEREFORE, CAN EXPOSE THEM TO MORE RISK OF ABDOMINAL AND INTERNAL ORGAN INJURY.
