Dt: the contact owns a 2000 chevrolet express. The drivers seat is broken. Two days ago I realized that the brackets that hold the seat in broke. The manufacturer needs to make the bracket bigger so that the seat does not push back or forward.

What 2000 Chevrolet Express owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Driver's side power seat continued to fail. The part was replaced three times. However the problem recurred.
Failure of driver seat power adjustable seat mechanism. Two rear pivots are failing. The steel of the upper pivot link is fatiguing until complete failure. Seat can move during rapid turning or hard bteaking. Seat rotates about front pivit points. We have had vehicle about 2 1/2 years and have had to replace the seat adjust mechanism twice.
The rear brackets on the driver's power seat adjuster assembly completely broke. The whole seat now pivots forward on the front brackets. We brought it to the attention of our local gm service center and were told it would cost nearly $900 to repair. We feel this is a safety issue and would like your help in identifying the history of this type of failure. What steps should be taken with the manufacturer to have them repair this at their expense?
While driving , the driver and passenger side seat snapped off the base, on different occasions. *ak the seat belts unlatched by themselves, the rear bench seat failed to stay tight, the side doors were difficult to open and the outside mirrors vibrated and the brakes were faulty *jb
1st time seat broke was covered under warranty. 2nd was on me, mileage over 60000. The bracket that holds the seat is like 4 thin washers, 1st time 2 brake, dealer replaced. Less than 6 months later, they all broke. I had to wire the seat in place to stop from coming completely off. Can't use the 6 way power at all, for fear of something else coming off or braking. I would guess that there other full size vans out there that have the same problem. The dealer might say its on the conversion company, but it wasn't in my case. Thank you. *ts *nlm **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12-12-02 cut over to artemis**770174

While driving track bolts broke for the second time. Contacted dealer, and the dealer cannot find a remedy.*ak the power seat anchor broke and detached from the seat track while driving almost causing loss of control.
My wife was sitting in the driver seat of the van. The van was parked. Her leg made contact with the power seat control moving the seat forward and trapping her in the vehicle with her knee stuck under the dashboard. The seat would not return to it's original position and there is no release mechanism other than the power control knob. The seat was installed by mark iii conversion vans and sold as new by the d & c chevrolet gm dealer.
