I noticed a few previous posts for people having issues and repairs done on their 2021 Yukon's regarding the Drivers Front Seat Inboard Air Bag Connector. This seemed related to another recall or repair bulletin# PIT5759H. Both seem to be related to a seat safety restraint system issue for code B14DC. My Yukon, purchased new, has 43,000 miles on it and the seat safety restraint system was repaired under warranty by the dealership about 1 year ago. Within the last 2 months, I was getting alerts from OnStar about a warning for the Air Bag System Alert. It turns out that the air bag pig tail connector / terminal was at fault on the drivers front seat. Since the vehicle is 7,000 miles over warranty, the dealership refused to address this with GM to consider if still covered from a previous repair bulletin. I am thinking that bulletin# PIT5759H would have covered this issue along with the seat safety restraint system. The dealership was happy to charge over $600.00 to repair the connector with part# 13530533. The dealership also communicated that the foam, from the seat, was pushing on the connector and caused the issue. Originally, I was thinking the Air Bag System Alert was a simple computer reset issue, but when the dealership explained that a faulty connector was to blame due to seat foam, we felt concerned that this may be a safety issue that needed to be resolved immediately. Anyone have any suggestions on this and / or who to engage at GM on this? I would like to see if this issue should have been covered under the warranty when the work was originally performed for the seat safety restraint system.
The previous post that mentioned a similar issued was 11/21/2020 from Adplusone.
