Driver Seat Belt Latch Plate - Not Readily Accessible
BULLETIN NUMBER: 93-10A2-72
SECTION: 10A2 Seat Belts
NUMBER: 1
CORPORATE REFERENCE NUMBER: 361601
DATE: May 1993
SUBJECT:
DRIVER SEAT BELT LATCH PLATE NOT READILY ACCESSIBLE (INSTALL STOP BUTTON)
MODELS:
1992-93 G-VANS
CONDITION
Some owners of 1992-1993 G-vans may comment that the Driver's (LH) seat belt latch plate is less accessible than desired.
Note:
This condition may occur on all seat belt options (i.e. upfitter units or passenger vans).
CAUSE
The driver's side seat belt does not have a stop button to prevent the latch plate from falling to the floor when the seat belt is not in use. This condition
might create an extra step for the driver when trying to locate the latch plate.
CORRECTION
The above mentioned condition may be improved by installing a replacement stop button kit which is now available from GMSPO under the part
numbers listed in the SERVICE PARTS INFORMATION section of this bulletin. The kit contains two sets of the two piece buttons. Only one set is
actually needed to correct the condition indicated in this bulletin.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1.
Find the center width measurement that is approximately 14" (35cm) from the base of the seat belt protector cover. (Figure 1)
2.
Use a grease pencil or a marker to identify that point.
