Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“As I sat down in the seat, I leaned back and when I pushed back in the seat I felt a crack, and the seat proceeded to lean back. When I looked under the seat I noticed that the riser mechanism had broken which now causes the seat to lean back. I checked with GM and it will cost over $500 just for the riser mechanism. No attempt was made to find out what caused the failure.”
