“Since June of 2024 my 3rd row seats will not let down. Problem when you pull tether strap it will not release the seat to allow it to fold down. I am not able to use my third row at all. I informed Maxie Price Chevorlet about the issue. I called GM and they have no clue about a recall. I bought a brand new vehicle and can not use it for the reason I bought it for!”

Have taken to dealership twice with no resolution. …”
