2008 Chevrolet Tahoe Seat Belts Problems

Your front passenger seatbelt is stuck and won't extend to buckle. When you use your right turn signal, your high beam headlights turn on instead, which can blind other drivers and create a safety hazard. Your back hatch doesn't operate at all, which could be dangerous if you needed it as an emergency exit.

WHILE IN MOTION, 6 YR OLD IN BOOSTER SEAT, SEAT BELTED IN 3RD ROW REAR SEAT, DRIVERS SIDE COMPLAINED TO OPERATOR THAT HIS SEAT BELT WAS CHOKING HIM. OPERATOR STOPPED VEHICLE, WENT TO CHILD AND TRIED TO UNLATCH BELT. THE UNLATCH BUTTON WOULD NOT DEPRESS, OPERATOR WAS UNABLE TO CREATE ANY SLACK IN THE UPPER BELT, THE BELT WAS SO TIGHT THE CHILD WAS NEARLY PASSED OUT, OPERATOR HAD TO CUT THE BELT TO RELEASE CHILD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE WAS ATTEMPTING TO EXIT THE VEHICLE WHEN THE SEAT BELT FAILED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THE SEAT BELT BUT THE ANCHOR WOULD NOT RELEASE THE BUCKLE. THE CONTACT ENDED UP JAMMING HER FINGER AND INJURING IT. THE SEAT BELT RELEASED BUT WOULD NOT CONNECT LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE ANCHOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,800.

2008 CHEVY TAHOE DOES NOT HAVE A CHILD SAFETY SEAT HOOK IN THE SECOND ROW SEAT LEFT SIDE TO HOOK YOUR CHILD SEAT TO. I HAVE CALLED CHEVY AND THEY DO NOT HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THE MISSING PART ONLY THEY DO NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF A CHILD SEAT IN THAT LOCATION. THIS LOCATION IS NEXT TO THE LEFT DOOR THEY DO RECOMMEND YOU TO USE A CHILD SEAT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR NEXT TO THE DOOR (?) SO YOU HAVE TO PLACE THE CHILD SEAT ON THE RIGHT SIDE NEXT TO THE DOOR AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEAT. SO IF YOU DO THIS YOU CAN NOT GET TO THE BACK THIRD ROW SEAT . THIS IS A MISTAKE THAT THEY LEFT OUT THE PART AND WILL NOT FIX. *TR
