NHTSA complaint #8024017, filed 2002-12, 11,776 miles“2002 Buick Park Avenue purchased 07/23/02, left front driver's seat has excess movement ( feels like one half to one inch movement) each time I start and stop. This is noticed, especially, when stopping and starting at traffif lights. I feel very insecure, as if the seat may come loose and throw me into the windshield or backward each time I start or stop the vehicle. The dealer was contacted about this concern 10/02/02,10/23/02 and 06/25/03.I also contacted Buick customer assistance center about 01/10/03. The conclusion seems to be that this is normal for the 2002 Buick Park Avenue. …”
