problem #4

The second row - driver's side seat belt no longer was retracting, making the seat unsafe. This belt had been slow to retract since we purchased this vehicle from the dealership in June 2022, but it stopped retracting in mid January 2023. As my extended warranty only covers drive chain, the dealer charged me $627.43 for parts and labor to replace the seat belt. It is disappointing that Chevrolet does not warranty the basic safety equipment for the life of the vehicle.

Both 2nd row seatbelt tensioners failed within four years of owning the vehicle (bucket seats) with an estimated cost of $500 to fix. We were advise that this is the result of using a recommended child car seat. It is not acceptable or safe to have a seat belt system that cannot be used properly after a car seat has been used and removed.

Right rear passenger seatbelt retractor does not automatically lock when the seatbelt is fully pulled out of the retractor, nor does it automatically retract when in the unused position. Makes loud clicking nose. Cannot properly secure my child's safety seat.
