On certain pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, the 2nd row center occupant seat belt routing may make if difficult to position the lap portion of the safety belt low around the hips of occupants, especially smaller occupants, seated in this position. Appropriate use of a child seat or booster seat, as recommended for small children, does improve the fit condition for this user group. In addition to instructions on proper infant and young child restraint (with child seats or boosters), special verbiage for restraining older child is included in the owner's manual. Also, the suggested seat belt fit/routing for adults, irrespective of seating position, is described ion the owner's manual test.

A lap portion of the seat belt routing that is not low and snug on the hips can allow unfavorable occupant kinematics in the event of a crash, especially a frontal collision. Moreover, the higher routing allows the lap belt to ride up on an occupant's abdomen instead of fitting low around their hipbones, and therefore, can expose them to more risk of abdominal and internal organ injury.

Dealers will cut open the guide loop, remove a portion of the loop, and then the remaining two sides should be folded over and secured with a retainer. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners should contact GMC at 1-866-996-9463.
