“I have a 1995 chevy lumina van and the steel frame under the drivers seat keeps breaking. I welded the first seat 3 times until it was so bad I had top buy another one. The second seat I got was the same and I am about to weld it a second time also. I know of another person with a 1992 lumina van who had the same problem. I can't believe it hasn't been recalled yet. Thanks .”

“1995 Chevrolet Lumina Apv drivers side seat track/frame breaks, causing the back of the seat to recline suddenly. I had a 1994 Chevrolet Lumina Apv which was involved in an accident in febuary of 2001, in which the seat track/frame broke. Mine just broke while I was driving. Luckily I was it at a time when there wasn't much traffic, and I got stopped without an accident. I have talked to an upholestry shop and a dealer and have been told this is common on these vans.”
