ON CERTAIN CREW CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE 2ND ROW CENTER OCCUPANT SEAT BELT ROUTING MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO POSITION THE LAP PORTION OF THE SAFETY BELT LOW AROUND THE HIPS OF OCCUPANTS, ESPECIALLY SMALLER OCCUPANTS, SEATED IN THIS POSITION. APPROPRIATE USE OF A CHILD SEAT OR BOOSTER SEAT, AS RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, DOES IMPROVE THE FIT CONDITION FOR THIS USER GROUP.

A LAP PORTION OF THE SEAT BELT ROUTING THAT IS NOT LOW AND SNUG ON THE HIPS CAN ALLOW THE LAP BELT TO RIDE UP ON AN OCCUPANT'S ABDOMEN INSTEAD OF FITTING LOW AROUND THEIR HIPBONES, AND THEREFORE, CAN EXPOSE THEM TO MORE RISK OF ABDOMINAL AND INTERNAL ORGAN INJURY.
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE BRAKE PEDAL PUSHROD RETAINER MAY BE MISSING. IF THE RETAINER IS MISSING, THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUSHROD COULD DISENGAGE FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL.

IF THE SHIFT LEVER POSITION INDICATOR DOES NOT ILLUMINATE, THE DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHICH GEAR THE VEHICLE IS IN.
THE VEHICLE MAY MOVE IN AN UNINTENDED DIRECTION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE INJURY TO OTHERS OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

STARTING IN NOVEMBER 2007, I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY 2005 YUKON SPEEDOMETER. IT WOULD EITHER START AT 60MPH, NOT GO HIGHER THAN 45MPH, AND LATELY IT JUST FAILED. IT'S NOT REGISTERING ANY SPEED. ON JULY 25, 2008, I WAS TOLD BY A GMC DEALERSHIP THAT MY CLUSTER HAS FAILED AND NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THESE THEY HAVE SEEN A LOT OF THESE VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. SUPPOSEDLY, THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2003 AND 2005 MODELS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR SPEEDOMETER. *TR
