Consumer Description
2000 CHEVROLET VENTURE. FAULTY SPOT WELD IN THE UNIBODY NEAR THE RIGHT FRONT CORNER OF THE DRIVER SEAT MOUNT STAMPING. THIS HAS CAUSE APPROX. A 4 INCH TEAR IN THE FLOOR PAN RUNNING FROM THE MOUNT TOWARD THE CONSOLE. THERE IS ALSO A TEAR SPIDERING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SAME BRACKET AROUND A WELD THAT IS NOW ABOUT THE SIZE OF A HALF DOLLAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT THAT I AM AWARE OF AND I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE 2002. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF YOU DO NOT REMOVE THE CARPET YOU WOULD NOT SEE IT. IF THE VEHICLE WERE TO BE REAR-ENDED THE SEAT BRACKET MAY TEAR THE FLOOR MORE AND CAUSE THE DRIVER SEAT TO PIN THE REAR SEAT PASSENGERS. I HAVE DIGITAL PHOTOS OF THE TEARS AVAILABLE AS WELL. THE FAILURE WILL REQUIRE WELDING OF THE TEAR ON THE FLOOR PAN AS A MINIMUM. *JB
