Details

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.
