The seat belt brackets on the above vehicles may not have been secured to the seat frame in the front-row center seating position, NHTSA said. If a seat belt bracket is not secured, the device may fail to restrain an occupant in the front-row center seat position, increasing the risk of severe injuries during a crash.

GM is notifying owners and dealers will inspect the seat-belt bracket attachments and reassemble them as necessary, free of charge.
