While stopped, was rearended at approx. 5omph, driver's seat track bolt sheared off, detaching seat from anchor.
The vehicle pops when going from reverse to drive, and once accelerating it continues to pop like pieces of metal hitting together.
Driver's side seat bolt that holds seat to frame came loose and caused seat to become detached from base, while braking the consumer heard a snapping sound and at the same time was thrown forward causing temporary loss of control. Once vehicle control was regained, consumer noticed that the drivers seat was no longer firmly attached to the frame of the vehicle. *nlm
GMC sent a recall letter in february 2003 and stated wipers for GMC trucks would stop working intermittently. The letter also stated if you have had this problem, take your vehicle to a GMC dealer for repairs at no cost to you. The letter did not require the repair be done, only indicated if you have had this problem. I never had the itermittent problem, my wipers stopped with no warning in february 2005. GMC refuses to make these necessary costly repairs even though it is a life threatening matter.
