Consumer Description
FRONT DRIVERS POWER SEAT BROKE OFF THE POWER DEVICE SO THE WHOLE SEAT SLIDES OFF THE RAILS COMPLETELY. IT IS CURRENTLY TIED ON WITH HOSE CLAMPS AND TIE WRAPS, BUT IS NOT SECURE. THE CHEV DEALER WANTS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT. GLAVAL CORP., THE INSTALLER OF THE SEATS ADMITS NO RESPONSIBILITY. NO BODY SHOPS ARE WILLING TO TRY WELDING IT BACK ON. WE ARE LESS THAN TWO YEARS INTO A FOUR YEAR LEASE, SO HAVE TO DRIVE IT AS IS.
