Seats: front assembly: head restraintReported September 17, 2002 · 558,904 vehicles affected

What is wrong: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with rearward folding head restraints on the second row seats, two potential pinch points exist on each of the folding head restraints when the restraints are folded rearward as the seatback is folded down.
Risk: If a person were to insert their finger(s) into the pinch point when the head restraint folds, it could trap and pinch the finger(s) causing injury.
Remedy: Dealers will install protective covers over the pinch points. Owner notification began november 8, 2002.

The second row seating in my SUV is supposed to have the option to lay down or sit up like normal. When I tried to lift the seat of the large section to lay the seat flat, the cable broke as if it had been ready to snap for quite some time. The smaller side hasn't snapped yet but I am sure it is only a matter of time.

My parking/emergency brake goes all the way to the floor and does not hold my vehicle on even the slightest grade. The dealer states that this is normal per gmc even though they have had numerous complaints. My engine has a knocking noise when I start it up in the morning. The dealer also stated that this is normal per gmc. My front passenger bucket seat back moves forward and back (wobbles). My rear end wheel bearing were replaced because of a loud hum. That was misdiagnosed twice by alfred mathews. My front end feels loose and squeaks when accelerating or braking. Rear leather bucket seats rattle all the time when driving and the leather has ripped @ seams twice. Alfred mathews replaced once and tried unsuccessfully to fix seat rattle. My newest complaint is a noise that comes from the rear of the vehicle when you shut the doors. *jb ***dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****761455

The front seats rock unpredictably. They rock both forward and reward under acceleration and braking as well as rough terrain. This is irritating as well as a safety concern as it is difficult to brake/accelerate consistently with the movement in the seat. The dealer has been contacted on numerous occasions as well as gm canada and I have had the drivers and passengers seat replaced. There is still some movement in the seats particularly the passenger seat. The dealer now claims the movement that is still remaining is a normal condition.
