Consumer Description

BOTH PASSABGER AND DRIVER SEAT FRAMES/TRACKS HAVE FAILED. SEATS ROCK EXCESSIVELY AND PASSANGER SEAT SOMTIMES RELEASES AND SLIDES FOWARD. 3 FRIENDS THAT HAVE CHEVY TAHOE'S HAVE HAD THEIR SEAT FRAMES REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES (ONE PERSON HAS HAD 6 NEW SEATS) I BELIEVE THAT THIS AMOUNT OF FAILURES CONSTITUTES A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND IS UNQUESTIONABLY A SAFETY HAZARD (PASSANGER SEAT SLIDING FOWARD WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED ABRUPTLY, I ALMOST SENT MY GIRLFRIEND THROUGH THE FRONT WINDOW). I AM ONLY 175LBS AND MY SEATS FRAMES HAVE NO REASON TO FAIL. PLEASE CHECK ANY DEALER REPAIR HISTORY FOR THIS MAKE AND YOU MAY FIND AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUT OF FAILURES. *AK
