Over the past 3 years, the cover on all three seat belt latches in the second row of our suburban have failed. they are made of 2 pieces of plastic that clip together to cover the mechanism and provide guidance for the seat belt tab to be inserted into the latch. not having the latch covered makes it extremely difficult to buckle any seat belt for passengers in the second row. it is also difficult to press the button to release the seat belt. this is a huge safety issue as it is very difficult to buckle the seat belts even for an adult. none of our children can secure their seat belt when riding in this car. we have to make sure each time we get in the car to assist them. in addition, it is easy to scrape against the exposed metal of the latch mechanism when entering and exiting the vehicle. i was not able to find any recalls or other inquiries about this issue. *tr
