2015 GMC YUKON — Complaint #1800882
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about CHILD SEAT filed March 11, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1800882 (ODI reference 11456279) concerns a 2015 GMC YUKON and was filed on March 11, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 1, 2022. The report was geocoded to Kansas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as child seat, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same GMC YUKON cohort independently describe similar child seat failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 GMC YUKON shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a Recaro car seat, Model Type: Young Sport Hero, Model Number: N/A, Manufactured Date: N/A. The car seat was being utilized in a 2015 GMC Yukon. The contact stated that her child was able to climb out of his car seat since there was no clasp on the harness to restrain him. The contact had to use the vehicleâs seat belt to restrain the child securely. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to not let her child climb out of his safety seat. The car seat was not repaired or replaced.
