8 reportsSEAT TRACK BROKE, CAUSING THE SEAT TO CONTIUOUSLY MOVE BACK AND FORTH. CONTACTED DEALER, AND DEALER SAID THAT ALL THAT HAD TO BE DONE WAS TO TIGHTEN TRACK, IN ACTUALITY THE RAILS WERE CRACKED, MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT REPLACE DUE TO HIGH MILEAGE AND THEY ALSO STATED THAT IT WASN'T A DEFECT. *SLC
THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE BRAKES PULL SERVERLY TO THE RIGHT AND ALWAYS HAS SINCE NEW BUT YOU RECALLED 1/2 TON TRUCKS BUT NOTHING WAS DONE TO THE 3/4 TON TRUCKS AND DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE WHETHER THE TRUCK IS LOADED OR NOT.

HERE'S THE TEXT I E-MAILED TO THE CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER A FEW MINUTES AGO: I HAVE RECEIVED YOUR LETTER ALERTING ME ABOUT A POTENTIAL WIPER PROBLEM WITH MY 96 SUBURBAN. IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT THE PROBLEM YOU DESCRIBED RECENTLY BEGAN TO OCCUR IN MY 92 PICKUP. THE WIPERS WILL SIMPLY STOP WORKING WITHOUT WARNING. LATER, THEY'LL START WORKING AGAIN ON THEIR OWN. THEY HAVE STOPPED IN VARIOUS POSITIONS AT VARIOUS TIMES. I'D LIKE TO THINK THAT THIS DEFECT, SIMILAR TO THE ONE OBSERVED IN NEWER MODELS, COULD BE CORRECTED BY MY DEALER AT NO COST TO ME.
WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN AT 35 MPH LOST ALL POWER AND ALL ACCELERATION. CONSUMER CONTACTED THE DEALER. DEALER STATED CAUSE WAS DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT WHICH NEED REPLACING. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK
