PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE SLIPPING OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING.*MR THE VEHICLE WENT FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO TOLD THE CONSUMER THAT A NEW TRANSMISSION WOULD COST HIM $4000.00 AND TO REBUILD AN OLD ONE WOULD BE $3000.00. THE CONSUMER HAS MADE ONGOING COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE VEHICLE AND FEELS THE COST OF THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE LOWERED. NOT ONLY HAS THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION ,BUT THE ROOF OF THE TRUCK INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE HEAD LINER THAT NOW HANGS DOWN WHICH WAS DUE TO THE ROOF LEAKING, THE CONSUMER HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT RETRACTOR AS WELL AS THE RADIO SYSTEM. *CB THE VEHICLE ALSO HAD A BROKEN SEAT BACK RECLINER, THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD NOT TURN OFF, THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE WOULD NOT ENGAGE, THE SHOCKS WERE BAD AND THE VEHICLE WAS IN NEED OF AN ALIGNMENT. *JB

THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM-94-C-62(B). SINCE THE RECALL I'VE HAD THE TRUCK IN THE DEALERS SHOP 3 TIMES. THEY'VE REPLACED THE SAME SEAT BOLTS EACH TIME. THEY EVEN REPLACED THE SEAT THE SECOND TIME IN THE SHOP. THE LAST TIME IT TOOK OVER A MONTH AND DEALING WITH 3 GM CUSTOMER SERVICE PEOPLE TO GET GM TO PAY FOR IT. WHICH AT THAT TIME GM STATED THAT THEY WOULD NO LONGER PAY FOR ANY FURTHER SEAT REPAIRS. THIS SEAT FEELS LIKE IT MIGHT BE GETTING LOOSE AGAIN. AS THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM ARE THEY ONLY OBLIGATED TO REPAIR IT AS LONG AS THEY WANT? ONE OF MY CONCERNS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT BREAKS AGAIN? EACH TIME IT BREAKS, IT DOES SO WHILE DRIVING. IS THIS JUST AN ISOLATED EVENT OR ARE OTHERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM? GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TOLD ME MY REOCCURING PROBLEM IS THE ONLY ONE THEY HAVE HEARD OF RELATED TO THIS RECALL. THE DEALER THAT DID THE RECALL WORK IS ROYAL MOORE BUICK/GMC IN HILLSBORO OR.*AK

CONSUMER RECEIVED RECALL(94-C-62A AND B) FRONT SEAT BACK RECLINER FAILURE, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR REPIARS AND FAULTY BOLTS THAT MOUNTED THE SEAT BACK TO THE LOWER SEAT FRAME WERE REPLACED, WHILE BRAKING TWO OF THE BOLTS IN THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT SNAPPED MAKING THE SEAT LURCH FOWARD AND THEN ALMOST COMPLETLEY BACK, CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALERSHIP WHERE RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED PREVIOUSLY TO REPLACE BOLTS AND WAS DENIED, BUT AFTER A CONVERSATION WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER IT WAS AGREED THAT CONSUMER WOULD PAY ONLY FOR PARTS, TWO WEEKS LATER CONSUMER NOTICED THAT THE SEAT SEEMED TO BE LEANING TO ONE SIDE, COVER WAS REMOVED OFF OF SEAT BACK AND THE SEAT BACK TUBULAR FRAME HAD SOME CRACKS IN THE WELD, CONSUMER PURCHASED A NEW SEAT BACK FRAME, CONSUMER HAS BEEN DENIED REIMBURSEMENT BY MANFACTURER STATING THAT THE PROBLEMS THAT HE IS EXPERIENCING DOES NOT FALL UNDER THEIR PREVIOUS RECALL WHICH STATES WHEN BOLTS FAIL THE SEATS WILL RECLINE, NOT MOVE FOWARD. *JB

CONSUMER HAD RECALL 93V163 COMPLETED, 2 OF THE BOLTS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SNAPPED WHILE BRAKING ALSO CAUSING THE SEAT BACK FRAME TO CRACK IN THE WELDS, THE CONSUMER TOOK THIS TO THE DEALER WHO COMPLETED THE WORK FOR THE BOLTS BUT THE CONSUMER HAD TO PAY FOR THE PARTS, THE CONSUMER HAD THE SEAT BACK FRAME REPLACED ON HIS OWN, JUST RECENTLY WHILE BRAKING,THE BOLTS BROKE ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE, CAUSING THE BACK FRAME TO BEND AND SEPARATE AT THE WELD JOINTS, GM STATED THAT BECAUSE THE SEAT RECLINED FORWARD THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING OR REPAIRING THE SEAT BOLTS, THE CONSUMER ARGUED THAT WHILE BRAKING THE SEAT WOULD RECLINE FORWARD, BUT THE DEALER STILL REFUSED ANY KIND OF REPAIR. *SLC

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE INTERMITENT, NOW FAIL AND CAUSE HIGH CURRENT DRAW ON ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. RECALLED SEATS WERE REPAIRED AT DEALER, SEA-BACK MALFUNCTIONED WHILE DRIVING AGAIN REPORTED TO DEALER SAID THEY NEEDED MANAGER APPROVAL, NO MANAGER AVAILABLE NOW DRIVING WITH ICE CHEST HOLDING SEAT BACK IN PLACE SPEED CONTROLS ON CRUISE CONTROL ARE INTERMITTENT BRAKE LIGHT/TURNSIGNAL PASSANGER/REAR BURNS OUT MORE OFTEN THAN OTHER BULBS CHARRING AT ELECTRICAL PLUG ASSY. LEFT DOOR SAGS DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. MY BIGGEST CONCERNS ARE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND THE SEATS I AM GOING TO TRY DEALING WITH THE REPAIR SHOP BUT ANY HELP FROM THIS ORG. WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU
