| 1st time seat broke was covered under warranty. 2nd was on me, mileage over 60000. the bracket that holds the seat is like 4 thin washers, 1st time 2 brake, dealer replaced. less than 6 months later, they all broke. i had to wire the seat in place to stop from coming completely off. can't use the 6 way power at all, for fear of something else coming off or braking. i would guess that there other full size vans out there that have the same problem. the dealer might say its on the conversion company, but it wasn't in my case. thank you. *ts *nlm **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12-12-02 cut over to artemis**770174 | |||

| The rear brackets on the driver's power seat adjuster assembly completely broke. the whole seat now pivots forward on the front brackets. we brought it to the attention of our local gm service center and were told it would cost nearly $900 to repair. we feel this is a safety issue and would like your help in identifying the history of this type of failure. what steps should be taken with the manufacturer to have them repair this at their expense?*ak | |||
