The consumer had the recall completed for the front seat back recliner (95v‑246), however the seat continued to experience failure resulting in the seat back collapsing while driving, consumer almost lost control over the vehicle on one occasion due to defect, consumer is not satisfied of the price on the repair, due to prior recall.

Would have difficult in driving when acceleration or braking. Seat would move back or forth. Seat had fallen backwards when driving & driver's view was obstructed. There was no corrective solution for driver's seat.
Driver's seatback bolt broke unexpectedly which could havecaused sudden loss of vehicle control. Occurred twice. First time dealer fixed the problem, second time dealer wanted to charge the consumer. Also problem with windshield wipers malfunctioning due to the circuit board. But 1993 c1500 was not included in the recall due to VIN although it had the same problem.
When moving passenger's seat forward seat will not stay in place, making passenger fall backward due to a wire that held the seat breaking.
Driver's side seat (split bench) collapsed on two occasions due to bolt failure, recall on component however vehicle denied due to VIN #. Mjs
Recliner bolts broken out in frame causing seat back to collapse while driving, neck injury to consumer due to failure. Mjs
I know the driver's side seatback "bolts" were subject to recall, mine were replaced once under recall, and failed again and I had to replace them at my expense. This is the same problem as the recall, just the other side of the truck seat.
While driving the driver side seat broke, causing the consumer to fall back. Consumer's daughter had to catch the consumer so she wouldn't lose control of the vehicle. Also, the passager's side seat broke, and the consumer fell back. The dealer has repaired the seats six times for the bolts breaking, and they can't determine the problems.
