1998 Chevrolet S-10 seats problems

“MY DRIVER SEAT ADJUSTMENT DOES NOT LOCK PROPERLY IT MOVES FORWARD AND BACKWARDS AT ANYTIME. THIS CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHEN THE SEAT RELEASED WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND CAUSED ME TO HIT A VEHICLE I N FRONT OF ME BECAUSE OF IT. I FEEL GM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEFECT THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE HAD A RECALL ON. IT THERE ANY LAWYERS HANDLING THIS DEFECT. *TR”

“THROUGH NORMAL USE OF THE SEAT RECLINE MECHANISM, BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SEAT RECLINE HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF AT AN INTERNAL FRICTION BAR. NEITHER SEAT RECLINES NOW AND IS STUCK IN THE LAST POSITION USED. CHEVY, OR GM, HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM, I HAVE LOOKED INTO FIXING THE PROBLEM MY SELF, HOWEVER THE ENTIRE SEAT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND IS TO COST IN-EFFICIENT FOR MY NEEDS. I HAVE RETAINED THE FAULTY HANDLES, DREAMING THAT POSSIBLY GM WILL OWN UP TO DEFECTIVE, POOR DESIGN AND REMEDY THIS ISSUE. *TR”

“THE LEVERS THAT RECLINE THE SEATS BROKE OFF AT THE WELDS. IT IS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT AS A RESULT OF A POOR WELDING PROCESS. THE BREAK WAS AT THE HEAT AFFECTED ZONE AND THE METAL WAS NOT PROPERLY HEAT TREATED. *JB”

“I OWN A 1998 CHEVROLET S-10 SLR PICKUP TRUCK AND THE SEATS DO NOT ALWAYS CATCH. I WENT TO A GM DEALER AND PAID $300.00 TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED BUT SOME TIMES THE SEATS DO NOT CATCH AFTER YOU PULL THEM FORWARD TO GET INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE SEATS, EITHER PASSANGER OR DRIVER. THIS IS A SPERATIC ERROR BUT WHEN THE SEATS DO NOT CATCH MY PASSENGER IS SLIDE FORWARD OR AT TIMES I THE DRIVER WILL FIND MYSELF GOING FORWARD BECAUSE THE SEAT TRACK DID NOT LOCK.*AK”

“DRIVER SIDE SEAT SEAT RECLINER FAILED. FIRST TIME THE CASTING INSIDE THE HANDLE FAILED. THE SECOND TIME THE FAILURE WAS IN THE TRANSFER ROD THAT THE HANDLE IS CONNECTED TO. FIRST FAILURE WAS WHILE IN USE, SECOND FAILURE IT "JUST FELL OFF." WHEN IT WORKED, AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FORCE WAS REQUIRED TO ACTIVATE. SINGLE OWNER OPERATOR - FAILURE OCCURED WITH LITTLE USE.*AK”

“THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BROKE AND LODGED INTO THE DASH DURING A WRECK. NONE WAS IN THE SEAT AT THE TIME BUT IF THERE HAD BEEN THAT PERSON WOULD HAVE VERY SERIOUS INJURIES. *LA”
