Buick in the affected vehicles, the driver and passenger lap belt pretensioner cables may not lock in a retracted position, allowing the seat belts to extend when pulled upon.
The short version
General Motors LLC reported a problem with the seat belts front. Here is what owners need to know.
In the affected vehicles, the driver and passenger lap belt pretensioner cables may not lock in a retracted position, allowing the seat belts to extend when pulled upon.
If the seat belts do not remain locked in the retracted position when under load, the seat occupant may not be adequately restrained in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace both front the driver's and the passenger's lap belt pretensioners, free of charge.
