GM Recalling 400K Vehicles Due to Possible Faulty Seat Belt
General Motors is recalling more than 480,000 vehicles in the U.S. due to a potential problem with seat belts. The recall impacts the 2021 and 2022 Cadillac Escalade/Escalade ESV 2021, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon/Yukon XL
GM states one of the seat belts in the third row of the vehicles could malfunction because of a faulty rivet, according to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
“If the third-row seatbelt assembly is not properly riveted, it may not properly restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury,” GM states.
Customers are asked to contact a dealer to have their vehicle inspected to see if the fix is needed. GM says they believe a small percentage of vehicles will fail the inspection. The service will be free of charge.
