1992 Chevrolet C1500 problems
The fourth generation of the C/K series is a range of trucks that was manufactured by General Motors. Marketed by the Chevrolet and GMC brands from the 1988 to the 2002 model years, this is the final generation of the C/K model line. In a branding change, GMC adopted the GMC Sierra nameplate for all its full-size pickup trucks, leaving the C/K nomenclature exclusive to Chevrolet.
Internally codenamed the GMT400 platform, GM did not give the model line a word moniker (e.g., "Rounded-Line series" for its predecessor). After its production, the model line would informally become known by the public as the "OBS" (Old Body Style), in reference to its GMT800 successor. In starting a different tradition, the model line overlapped production with both its predecessor and successor; the model line again shared body commonality with GM medium-duty commercial trucks.
Over nearly a 14-year production run, the fourth-generation C/K was assembled by GM in multiple facilities in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. After the 2000 model year, the fourth-generation C/K was discontinued and was replaced by the GMT800 platform (introduced for 1999); the C3500HD heavy-duty chassis cab model remained in production through 2002. In line with the GMC Sierra, Chevrolet subsequently adopted a singular Chevrolet Silverado nameplate for its full-size truck line (which remains in use).

SEAT BELTS PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 1998-03-06
- VIN: 2GCEK19K2N1
- Components: SEAT BELTS
- Summary: ABOUT 2.5 YEARS AGO MY FRONT SEAT BELTS BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION. THE SEAT BELT RETRACTORS ON BOTH SIDES WILL "NOT" ENGAGE. SIMPLY PUT THE SEAT BELTS WILL NOT PROVIDE RESISTANCE TO ANY FORWARD MOMENTUM. I CONTACTED SEVERAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIPS IN THE AREA AND WAS GIVEN THE SAME ANSWER BY ALL. THEY WOULD BE GLAD TO REPLACE THE SEAT BELTS AT MY EXPENSE. I LATER CALLED GENERAL MOTORS AND REPORTED MY PROBLEM TO THEM. THE LADY I SPOKE WITH SAID THAT SINCE MY TRUCK WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THERE WAS NOTHING SHE COULD DO. I INSISTED TO HER THAT IF I WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT I WOULD HAVE NO PROTECTION. SHE STILL INSISTED THAT THIS WAS MY PROBLEM AND NOT GEN. MTRS. AFTER A FRUITLESS EFFORT WITH THIS LADY, I TOLD HER OF AN 87 HONDA ACCORD THAT I HAD OWNED SOME YEARS EARLIER. ONE OF THE SEAT BELTS IN IT BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION. I WENT TO THE HONDA GARAGE AND THEY WERE GLAD TO TAKE CARE OF ME. THEY SAID THAT SINCE THIS WAS A SAFETY FEATURE OF THE CAR IT WAS HONDA'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE IT WORKED. MY CAR WAS REPAIRED AND I WAS SENT ON MY WAY. THERE WAS NO CHARGE. I AM ASKING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. I COULD FIND NO RECALL DATA FOR THIS PARTICULAR ITEM ON THE OLDER MODEL CHEVY TRUCKS. ONE LAST NOTE. I ATTEND CHURCH WITH A COUPLE OF OTHER FELLOWS WHO OWN SIMILIAR TRUCKS AS MINE. (CHEVY SILVERADOS) THEY TOO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE SAME THING BY DEALERSHIPS AND GENERAL MOTORS. I AM AN ENGINEER FOR A MAJOR AUTOMOTIVE AIRBAG MANUFACTURER. I GUARANTEE THAT IF THERE WERE A PROBLEM WITH AN AIRBAG MODULE (OLD OR NEW) WE WOULD "HAVE" TO BRING IT BACK IN AND REPLACE IT FOR THE CUSTOMER(S). I WOULD THINK THAT THE SEATBELTS SHOULD FALL UNDER A SIMILIAR MEASUREMENT. PLEASE RESPOND AS SOON AS YOU CAN. I WON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE ON THE FRONT SEAT OF MY TRUCK BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID IF THERE WERE AN ACCIDENT, SOMEONE COULD GET HURT. OTHER THAN MYSELF.
