Over the course of the past year, I've noticed the seat belt tightening against my body as I drive, even without slowing or braking. In the past two weeks, the tightening is so severe that I am unable to pull the seat belt out from locking up. It becomes difficult to unbuckle. This morning the seat belt would not pull out from the pocket where it retracts, but remained locked up there. With much very slow continuous pulling, after about 30 minutes, I was finally able to pull the seat belt so I could actually use it while driving. When the seat belt locks up, it restrains my ability to turn to check the blind spot before changing lanes, or even to lean forward. I am taking the truck to the dealer tomorrow morning, first thing, 0700 03AUG2021

FOR A WHILE NOW, MY TRUCK HAS BEEN AGGRESSIVELY SHAKING WHEN I HIT HIGHWAY SPEEDS SO I'VE SPENT MONEY GETTING BALANCES AND ALIGNMENTS AND TIRES TO TRY AND FIX THE ISSUE, BUT NOTHING WORKS. I'VE ALSO BEEN HAVING ACCELERATION ISSUES, BUT WHEN I TAKE IT TO A SHOP TO BE LOOKED AT, NOBODY CAN FIND THE PROBLEM. THEN A FEW DAYS AGO, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DOING AROUND 65 OR SO IN THE RAIN AND IT DID ITS USUAL SHAKING. I LOST CONTROL, THE TRUCK SPUN OUT AND HIT THE WALL. THE COP CAME AND ASKED IF MY TRUCK HAD BEEN DOING ANY SHAKING. I TOLD HIM YES... I CAME HOME AND MY FAMILY ASKED IF IT HAD BEEN SHAKING AS WELL. I ASKED WHY EVERYONE WAS MENTIONING THE TRUCK SHAKING. THEY TOLD ME ABOUT THE CHEVY RECALLS. SO I'M REACHING OUT BC I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT AND PAYING MONEY TO FIX THE SHAKING ISSUES AND THE ACCELERATOR ISSUES WITH NO SUCCESS AND NOW I'VE BEEN IN A WRECK AND COULD'VE LOST MY LIFE. I ONLY HURT MY FOOT AND MY GIRLFRIEND WAS CUT AND BURNED BY AIRBAGS. I NEED HELP. PLEASE.
