What 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Front left corner of drivers seat broke loose and started rocking back and forth. I was sitting parked and reaching in the back seat for item.
My front driver seat brackets broke while driving on the highway. The seat now rocks back and forth.
The front seat bracket on the drivers side pulled through the sheet metal on the left side, causing the seat to rock back.
My driver's seat bracket is broken and unsafe.
The bracket on my front seat has broke it is underneath seat and is very hard to get to my seat is always moving this is not safe and I should not have to pay for it and it is not safe.
While reaching in the back seat for something the driver seat frame broke at the left front bolt.
Driver's seat failure on a 1995 chevrolet tahoe. The design of the seat places the front left seat fastener on a thin piece of sheet metal rather than on the re-enforced corner of the seat frame. It appears to be some kind of design error. The thin piece of sheet metal split apart, allowing the fastener to come free, and the seat then rocked back, almost touching the rear seat behind it; the driver was left looking up at a 60 degree angle at the inside roof of the vehicle, and holding onto the steering wheel for support. This failure occurred in the driveway as the driver was backing up. I shudder to think what would have happened had my wife and two children been in the car and in traffic when this occurred. Gm should be forced to fix this, as it is clearly a safety hazard to the occupants of the vehicle as well as to other vehicles on the road. In my case, a call to the local dealer generated a "never heard of that" response; I ultimately disassembled the seat and had my local welding shop stitch in a 1/8 inch piece of steel across the entire front of the seat frame structure so that the re-enforced corners are connected by more than the flimsy piece of sheet steel (this is what gm should have done with the original design of this seat).
The driver side seat frame broke.
While traveling on the highway without prior warning the front driver seat hit the bottom. Please fill in additional information dealer is aware of the problem. Ph
