NHTSA Complaint #10257762 — 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

BOUGHT VEHICLE 8/10/05. FIFTEEN MONTHS LATER ON 1/29/07, I HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT SEAT ADJUSTER ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE SAFETY HAZARD IS THAT I HAD TO DRIVE 3 WEEKS WITH PILLOWS PROPPED BEHIND ME & USING MY TIP-TOES ON THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDDLES UNTIL THE PART WAS REPLACED. THE SEAT STOPPED WORKING A FEW MONTHS AGO AND IT TOOK A WEEK TO GET AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALER. THAT WEEK I HAD TO DRIVE WITH PILLOWS PROPPED BEHIND ME & USING MY TIP-TOES ON THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDDLES ON THE INTERSTATE TO GET TO WORK. WHEN THEY FINALLY GOT IT IN THE SHOP, THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THIS MORNING GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK, MY SEAT DID NOT WORK AGAIN. I DROVE TO WORK USING TIP-TOES AND PILLOWS. WHEN I WAS LEAVING WORK, THE SEAT WORKED. HAVING TO RELY ON PILLOWS AND TIP-TOES BECAUSE OF AN UNRELIABLE DRIVER SIDE FRONT SEAT ADJUSTER ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND EVERYONE AROUND ME. *TR
