GMC Sierra HD: Seats and Restraints

Affects GMC Sierra HD · 2017–2018 — about 320 vehicles.

The hazard

Certain double-cab pickup trucks equipped with a manual passenger side frontal airbag “ON/OFF” switch may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 209 – Seat Belt Assemblies. The front passenger seat belt retractor assembly may not be equipped with the correct torsion bar. If the front passenger airbag is manually turned off and inadvertently left off with an adult in the front passenger seat, this condition could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger in the event of a crash. Correction: For unsold vehicles, dealers will replace both the driver and passenger retractors, and for sold vehicles, dealers will replace the passenger retractor.
