Description of the problem | 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. |
