The short version

General Motors LLC reported a problem with the tether connector/clip. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The owner's manual for the affected vehicles may be missing instructions on how to use the tether anchorage and child restraint anchorage systems. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."

WHY IT MATTERS

If the instructions are missing from the owner's manual, the child seat may be installed incorrectly and not be properly secured, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

WHAT TO DO

GM will notify owners, and dealers will provide a corrected insert for the owners manual, free of charge.
