This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The driver's seat tips backward when we sit back in it, and can rock back and forth when the car stops and starts, or if the driver leans back while driving. This happens no matter which position the power seat is placed in, up or down, forward or back. This is a six-way power seat control.
1 yr after purchasing 2006 Chevy Malibu maxx heated seats starting coming on when car was started. Dealer kinda said that we were liars because they said no one in the whole us had a problem with their seats. We went back 17 times in 3 months and they changed everything and still seats come on. Now they come on when your driving and they get very hot. Dealer does not seem to care nor GM. We have stopped going and telling them. We have complained for 4 years and they keep giving us excuses that they are waiting for GM with a solution. We would go to the dealer weekly and they would say they had not heard from GM. That's why we stopped going there. Problem seems to be getting worse as its mostly the passenger seat and it gets hot immediately after it comes on. I would say within 5 to 10 seconds after seat is on. Afraid of getting burned and also a fire. What more can we do" any suggestions"
