POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION, SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
CONSUMER HAS HAD SEATBELT REPAIRED UNDER A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL. BUT, CONSUMER IS CALLING TO REPORT THAT SAFETY BELTS LOCK UP AT ALL TIMES. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. THE LOCKING UP OF THE SEAT BELT SEVERELY RESTRICTS THE DRIVERS MOVEMENT, THE LOCK UP PROBLEM MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO STEER THE VEHICLE AND MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH THE TRAILER-BRAKE CONTROLLER UNIT, AT TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT BACK UP, POSSIBLE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION. CONSUMER CAN NOT GET THE RETRACTOR MECHANISM TO RELEASE. NLM

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY TRANSMISSION INTERMITTENTLY SLIPPING WHEN STARTING TO ACCELRATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THIS OCCURS ON AN INFREQUEST BASIS AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. GM HAS REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER WHO REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. I THEN CONTACTED GM'S CORPORATE OFFICE AND I WAS ASKED TO BRING MY TRUCK IN AGAIN FOR THEM TO REPLACE THE KICKDOWN CABLE. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS TODAY.*AK
