problem #3

Left 2nd seat belt defective. While problematic for months, precise cause just identified. Any slight pressure to (red) release buckle, though causing no visible change, causes buckle to release unexpectedly at a later time. Was used to secure child car seat. Continually found buckle unlatched after trips. Originally suspected child was releasing buckle but recent investigation revealed true cause (other belts fine). Chevrolet dealer denies this as a safety repair, out of warranty.
