Example complaints

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

“I bought a 2003 Chevrolet s-10 p.u at a used car dealer on 11-13-09, drove it home on 11-14-09 that evening. On 11-19-09, driving it home from the repair shop for not wanting to start, I pulled out onto the highway and the seat slid back on its tracks. On 11-29-09 leaving church, I pulled onto the highway and the seat slid back on its tracks again. I got it locked in place at the next stop light, and when I accelerated, it happened again. When I step on the gas pedal to accelerate, the seat rocks back, which appears to disengage the locking mechanism from the tracks, and the seat slides back. …”
