| Seat Belt problems |
The driver side seat belt does not immediately latch when placed in the seat belt housing. To secure the seat belt the driver must keep placing the seat belt latch into the housing multiple times in order for the latch to secure. When brought to the attention of a local Chevrolet service center, their response was to pay >$400 to replace the seat belt housing (near the seat). The service center is lamb Chevrolet in prescott, arizona.
Seat belt buckle receiver occasionally does not “click” all the way and takes at times multiple attempts to connect. No light shows that it is disconnected. I’ve noticed it with both front seat belts receiver. Unknown with rear seats I’ve never sat in my vehicles backseats to confirm it there. Unknown if I can get them inspected upon request at my local dealer as they have not been the best with customer service. Seat belt not working correctly doesn’t give me confidence in it in the event of a collision. Unknown if reproduced no inspection has been conducted as of the time of this report. Will move to get that done ASAP.
My driver seat belt fails to lock, it has been happening for a few months, but has gotten drastically worse. I have an appointment with a dealership, but the first available appointment is Thursday November 7th 2019. I am in a group on facebook for this vehicle and others are experiencing the same issue.
I was driving slowly around 3 mph on a national forest service road when suddenly the side curtain airbags went off and seatbelts locked. The truck was in 4wd low and off road mode was active. There was no reason for these airbags to have gone off.
I was driving on sand and the side curtain airbags deployed without cause, along with the seat belt pretensioners.
