The flexible steel cable connecting the driver's seat belt to the outboard side of the seat may be repeatedly bent over the seat side shield as the driver enters and exits the vehicle, causing the cable to fatigue and separate.
A broken pretensioner cable reduces the effectiveness of the driver's seat belt, increasing the risk of injury.
What to do
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver seat belt lap pretensioner free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin May 24, 2021.
