GMC Terrain: Seat Belts / Seat Belt Extender

GMC Terrain 2018-2026 Owners Manual / Seats and Restraints / Seat Belts / Seat Belt Extender

If the vehicle's seat belt will fasten around you, you should use it.

But if a seat belt is not long enough, your dealer will order you an extender. When you go in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, so the extender will be long enough for you.

For more information on the proper use and fit of seat belt extenders see the instruction sheet that comes with the extender.
