NHTSA Complaint #10466830 — 2004 CHEVROLET MALIBU

FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT IS COMPLETELY LOOSE ON RIGHT SIDE. NOT SECURED DOWN, CANNOT ADJUST AND TILTS WHEN YOU MAKE A TURN OR GO AROUND A CURVE. HAVE TO DRIVE WITH SEAT ALL THE WAY DOWN WHICH IS HARD BECAUSE I AM A SHORT PERSON. WHEN I GET OUT OF THE CAR THE WHOLE SEAT ACTS LIKE IT IS JUST CONNECTED ON LEFT SIDE AND COMES UP ON RIGHT SIDE. I HAD SOMEONE LIFT THE SEAT WHILE I LOOKED UNDERNEATH. SOMETHING IS BROKE. BRACKET WILL NOT HOLD SEAT UP, JUST FALLS BACK DOWN AND SEAT WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE. ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE WITH SEAT MOVING AND NOT SECURE. IN READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, I FEEL THAT I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE OF A BROKEN FRAME WHICH IS A DEFINITE DEFECT. I AM NOT REAL HEAVY AND THAT SEAT SHOULD NOT HAVE BROKE. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR OVER THREE YEARS AND THIS HAS BEEN MY PERSONAL VEHICLE. HOWEVER, I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE LIKE THIS, BUT HAVE NO CHOICE! OH! THESE ARE POWER SEATS. THANK YOU. *TR
