#766007August 21, 2002
VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD, SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY
FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON-HEARD A POP, AND THE ENTIRE WINDOW SHATTERED. FOR THE REAR SEATBELTS, THE INERTIA LOCKS ACTIVATE AND THE BELTS LOCK UP TOO EASILY, TRAPPING THE PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. TO RELEASE THE BELT, IT MUST BE COMPLETELY REMOVED AND REATTACHED. DEALER CLAIMS THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION, DUE TO CHILD SEAT SAFETY DESIGN. BUT THIS DESIGN SEEMS DANGEROUS TO THE ADULT OR GROWN CHILDREN AS PASSENGERS.*AK

#765622August 14, 2002
SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR
THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT RETRACTOR IS DESIGNED TO LOCK AND NOT RELEASE IF THE SHOULDER BELT IS PULLED ALL THE WAY OUT. THIS CREATES A SAFTEY HAZARD. IF THE PASSENGER HAS TO REACH FOR SOMETHING THAT CASUSES THE SHOULDER BELT TO EXTEND COMPLETLY, YOU THEN HAVE TO UNBUCKLE THE SEAT BELT, RETRACT IT, THEN REBUCKLE THE BELT. IF THIS OCCURS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION, THE PASSENGER IS OPEN TO INJURY SHOULD AN IMPACT OCCUR AT THE TIME THE BELT IS UNBUCKLED. IF THE BELT IS NOT UNBUCKLED TO RELEASE THE RETRACTOR, IT IS EXTREMEMLY UNCOMFORTABLE TO SIT IN THE SEAT AS THE BELT WILL PREVENT ANY FORWARD MOVEMENT. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE SEAT BELT AND NOT A FEATURE AS GENERAL MOTORS DESCRIBES IT. THIS OCCURS ON ANY GM SEAT WHERE THE BELT IS INTEGRATED WITH THE SEAT RATHER THAN MOUNTED TO THE FRAMEWORK OF THE CAR.*AK

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
NOT YOUR ORDINARY SAFETY DEFECT BUT AN UNSAFE CONDITION NONETHELESS. I LIVE IN ARIZONA, A PLACE THAT TENDS TO GET A LITTLE WARM. WHEN THE VEHICLE HEAT SOAKS IN THE SUN THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY FAILS.THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE MAIN RECEIVER BOARD AND THE ( 2 ) ENTRY TRANSMITTERS WITH NO EFFECT OTHER THAN MODIFYING THE FAILURE CHARACTERISTICS. THE ( 2 ) KEY TRANSMITTERS ALSO DO NOT OPERATE THE ENTRY SYSTEM IN AN IDENTICAL MANNER. ONE WILL OPERATE ALL ENTRY SYSTEM FUNCTIONS, THE OTHER ( TRANSMITTER #2 ) WILL NOT. THIS WILL CREATE A SEVERE PROBLEM IF IMMEDIATE ACCESS IS REQUIRED TO THE VEHICLE AND YOU CANNOT RELY ON THE SYSTEM TO HAVE THE VEHICLE UNLOCKED WHEN YOU GET TO IT. MY BROTHER, ALSO THE OWNER OF A 2002 TRAILBLAZER, IS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM.*AK

SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
CONSUMER STATES THE SPRING RETRACTOR DOES NOT ALWAYS PULL THE BELT COMPLETELY CAUSING THE DOOR TO CLOSE ON THE BELT. IN THE EXTENDED POSITION THE SPRING DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH TORQUE TO RETRACT THE WEIGHT OF THE BELT AND THE CLIP. DEALER REPLACED THE BELTS AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLIES AND STATED THAT IT WAS DESIGNED AS NOT TO PUT TOO MUCH PRESSURE ON THE CHEST OF THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER. *TT
