NHTSA campaign record ↗

01V159000 · Seat Belts:Front:Retractor

Reported: 2001-05-17 (May 17, 2001) · Model years: 2001

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PICKUP AND UTILITY TRUCKS. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE AN INTERNAL COMPONENT IN THE OUTBOARD SEAT BELT RETRACTORS FOR THE 2ND AND 3RD ROW OF SEATS THAT COULD BE CRACKED. WITH REPEATED ACTUATION OF THE LOCKING MECHANISM, THE CRACK COULD SPREAD TO THE POINT SUCH THAT THE SEAT BELT WOULD NO LONGER LOCK.

Consequence: IN A CRASH, INCREASED OCCUPANT INJURY COULD RESULT FROM THE NO-LOCK CONDITION.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE OUTBOARD SEAT BELTS FOR SPECIFIC LOT NUMBERS AND REPLACE THE BELTS IF NECESSARY. GM IS ENCLOSING AN INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR THE OWNERS TO USE OR THEY CAN HAVE THEIR DEALERS DO THE INSPECTIONS. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JULY 2, 2001. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-222-1020 OR GMC AT 1-800-462-8782.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 GMC C6500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED AND WOULD NOT HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE WHEN IT WAS APPLIED. IN ADDITION, THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD NOT ALWAYS RELEASE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY FAILURE WITH THE PARKING BRAKE. THERE WAS A PREVIOUS DEFECT INVESTIGATION UNDER NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE03057 (PARKING BRAKE). THIS INVESTIGATION DID NOT WARRANT A RECALL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THE MANUFACTURER ON THE PHONE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,0…

A NEW DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR HAS BEEN REPLACED 2 TIMES WITHIN A 6 MONTH PERIOD. THE VEHICLE TRIES TO START BUT IT DOESN'T CATCH AND THEN SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TRYING TO BACK FIRE. THE AC COIL IS LEAKING ON TO THE CAP AND PRODUCING MOISTURE WHICH IS WHY IT WILL NOT START OR STALLS AND WILL NOT START BACK UP.

THIS VEHICLES WIPER BLADE SYSTEM FAILS SPORADICALLY. IT WAS RETURNED TO THE RETAILER FOR THIS PROBLEM AND A PROBLEM WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BUT WHEN IT ARRIVED AT THE DEALERSHIP THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN START AND THE WIPERS WORKED ALSO.
