I have just realized that one of the back seat passenger seat belt (the one at the back of the driver seat) has a delay to get activated when the vehicle is stopped due to an emergency, and in some cas S it does not get activated at all.

Tail/brake lights failed causing a safety concern. Took vehicle in to GMC dealer for repair. Left tail light (actually the entire printed circuit board) was replaced, right is on back order. Vehicle out of factory warranty and even though we had an extended bumper to bumper warranty, the work was not covered. This is a frequent issue, I have discovered on line, according to many owners of GMC SUVS and trucks between the 2015 and 2018 models. Cost of repair including both tail lights is $1617.05. GMC supported me by covering $600 of the cost so I paid $1017.05 out of pocket for 2 tail lights that should not have failed. I have only 24554 miles on the vehicle and have never had an accident. Additional to that, the 2 front seat belts are fraying which may lead to weakness eventually causing a safety issue. I want GMC to cover all costs related to repair of these two problems. There should be a recall regarding both. Seat belt problem has been on going for months and the tail light thing just happened on Monday, June 17, 2019.

Had an accident in 2018 air bags did not deploy and when tried to stop and pushed on my brake pedal, it was like it froze and I was still moving. I was driving 37mph on a city street when the accident happened.

The contact owns a 2015 GMC Yukon. The contact stated that the passenger side seat belt latch detached independently. The failure occurred without warning. The vehicle was taken to dublin GMC (4400 john monego ct, dublin, ca) where it was diagnosed that the seat belt latching system was jammed due to an object. Upon inspection, the contact did not see anything inside of the buckle. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 93,000.

The shoulder straps on the 2 outboard 2nd row seat belts are frayed. I took the vehicle to my GMC dealer today and he informed me that seat belts are only covered by the 36 month/36000 mile warranty, I was shocked to hear this. My vehicle has 57626 miles on it. I believe the design of the seat belt is faulty. What is obviously occurring is the seat belt buckle is rubbing against and through the shoulder strap when the belt is in the retracted position. I am concerned about the integrity of the belts, but I contend that GMC should be responsible to correct a faulty design. I highly doubt this condition is unique to my vehicle. I have attached 2 photos of the passenger side belt. The belt on the driver's side has the identical condition. Thank you.
