problem #1

Apr 072006

Alero 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 48,300 miles
: the contact stated the driver's seat is not properly secured to the floor. The seat moves back and forth while driving. The dealer replaced the seat riser underneath the seat. This did not remedy the problem. The dealership determined the actual floor of the vehicle was defective. The dealership temporarily fixed this by inserting foam rubber between the seat riser and the floor.
