I read recently that there was a recall for seatbelts on 08's. I never heard from GM about it, and am not sure exactly what the problem was. My driver belt seems to have a loose connection. Unless you are pulling it tight, the seatbelt warning light stays on. Pull it, and it goes,off. Let go, and in seconds it comes back on. Was that part of the recall?

Not sure quite what you might be referring to, but the only seat belt recall for the 08's had to do with the anchoring not providing sufficient strength. You can check Home | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for any vehicle's recall history, complaints, investigations and service bulletins.
