GM recall: seat belt buckles can rip

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and General Motors Corporation have launched a recall campaign. The automaker has discovered that some Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon and Yukon XL may have a defect that affects the vehicle’s safety. On some of these vehicles, the rivet that holds the seat belt buckle to the carrier in the third-row seat belt buckle on the left or right side may not have been properly machined during the manufacturing process.

These models are affected by recall:

• Cadillac Escalade From production period March 16, 2020 to May 27, 2022 (41636 vehicles)
• Cadillac Escalade ESV From production period 06/24/2020 to 05/27/2022 (25,158 vehicles)
