I called and asked today. Not covered. Even the extended warranty wouldn't cover it. $430 for them to replace just the retractor, not the belt. Seems like a crock of shit to me especially since it's a safety issue.

Anything?

 

Whoops, forgot to send an update. I had to cancel the appointment as I had an early morning call for work.

 

I might be trading the beast in, so I might not have an answer. But I will update if so.

I realized both the rear side belts were doing this on my 2014 Sierra. Looks same as pic OP posted. I just had truck in for a list of items, including these slow retracting seat belts. Service Advisor said on phone that Technician noted the belts eventually retract (they don't - even days later) and have same performance as new vehicles on lot. When I picked it up today, I ask Service Advisor to show me a new truck with this problem. He leads me to showroom floor. Opens rear pass door, grabs a handful of rear shoulder belt, yanks it below the door jam, lets go. Seat belt retracted FAST!! He tried it again. Same thing. He goes to rear driver's side, does same deal, even yanked the belt to the ground and seat belt retracted nearly as fast as rear pass side. Shuts door, and says "well, I'll see If I can get the new belts here by your appointment next Friday" (they need to finish seat belt recall on driver's front - trim piece hasn't come in). This was after he'd said the Service Manager denied the replacement. BTB Warranty expires 6/1, but I'm holding them to the fire on this.

 

I'll repost when the fix is in.

Spoke to Service Advisor today. The new rear left and right belts are on order and will be replaced under warranty.

Right and left rear shoulder belts/retractors (it's a complete assembly) have been replaced now under warranty. Belts retract as they should. That is the good news. Bad news is the service technician gouged up the trim panel that covers right belt assembly. Dealer is going to order part and replace on their dime. The inconvenience sucks though. Anyways, I'm happy the rear belts retract as they should.

I have a 2014 Silverado and the front driverside seatbelt will NOT recoil I have to feed it back in...Also the lap part of the seatbelt locks up when I’m strapped in.

Im having so many problems with this truck. I will NOT purchase Chevy again that’s for sure.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Average Assembly 4.8%   That's the likelihood of a light duty vehicle reaching 250,000 miles. Link below has the stats on this. Among pickups the 350 series (Dodge)  and higher (450 Ford) are most likely and nothing American built in the lighter trucks pegs a number higher than the overall average.  200K and up is the stomping grounds of Asian vehicles. Toyota Sequoia the leader at 39.1% probability.      https://www.autoweek.com/news/a68886903/vehicles-most-likely-to-last-over-250000-miles/   Likelihood drops dramatically at 100,000 miles of reaching even 150,000 miles. 250,000 is deep in the tail of the curve.    I've been told by the 'experts' that I don't need oils of the caliber I use. My high viscosity is damaging my motors. Ash content it to high and WILL foul plugs and kill cats and O2's. I don't need that much ZDP; my choice is over added and not cutting edge. I change it to often. I baby them to much.    Three Honda's reached 200K + and none used oil. All Red Line motors. All sold to friends or family. One Toyota reached 300K using oil, Pennzoil. Dizzy 300K using QSUD until it cashed the rings at 80K then whatever but often ever since. Did you know this engine still sports the OEM timing chain and is dead silent? Pepper spitting into the wind short of 200K, Red Line and changed often. Uses zero oil. A HPFP and a pinion seal. Still using most parts it left Fort Wayne with. So 50% of my vehicles have gone past 250K and 100% of the last half dozen past 200K. Of these two using "shelf oils' did so using abnormal oil and the four that used a premium boutique oil did not. There might be something there the experts have missed. 🤔

      It's not that it sits for extended periods. I drive it every couple of weeks. However, I did consider draining the DEF and replacing it.    Don't you get a "Poor quality DEF warning" if its bad?

      Try draining the def and relacing with new if it has been sitting for a long time. Def does go bad after a little while.

      2015 Silverado with HUD retrofit/upgrade.

      By Thestonedone · Posted

      Thanks @Viktorrocks15 if you are still out there.   I followed your instructions and worked out great, went to the scrap yard and procured 2016 escalade cluster, hud, bezel, and switch. Got lucky and found a Camaro in the u-pull with the HUD bezel.   I made my own harness with these diagrams: https://www.gmupfitter.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/23_Escalade_Escalade_ESV_Electrical_Body_Builder_SM_en_US_2022OCT25.pdf   I used escalade cluster because its the best one that will work IMO. Still need to get it programmed but it looks really good.
