problem #4

Sep 272005

Silverado 3500 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles
Driver & passenger power seats slope forward and back at start & stop 3/8 to 1/2 inch. This causes erratic operation of accelerator & brake. Also seat belts are anchored within seat base. I feel this would give me a flying start in event of a crash. Vehicle has only 68000 miles. Feels unsafe.

(1) steering: Vibrates when going over bumpy roads or bad roads. Happens when slowing down or going around corners. Would move & make clattering noises. Dealer said vehicle is not under recall even though experiencing the same problem (98V242000). (2) driver's power seat track brackets would move or shift & make clunking noises when getting in or out of seat. Seat would rock back & forth. Dealership will not repair the tract or brackets on power seats. Owner wants vehicle inspected for vibration problem but not by dealership.
