The lower seat frame for the drivers seat in my 1995 gmc sierra 4 wd 1/2 ton pickup has broken during acceleration into traffic. This breakage allows the seatback to rotate backward and to the right tilting the driver back and obscuring view of the highway. This was repaired once in 1996 under waranty. Then repaired again at my cost in 2000 and has broken again today. Each time this failure has occured the truck was being accelerated into traffic flow. This vehicle, although designed for off road usage has only been used on city streets. This seat failure is not a fun situation to experience and loss of control of the vehicle is very likely. I am 6'4" tall and seat position may have some influence on the failure due to the seat sets behind the base that mounts it to the floor. I personally have been told by other owners that this is not unique to my personal truck. The mfg. Doesn't acknowledge any awareness of this occurance being a problem.
