The truck was taken to the GMC dealer in mcminnville or. - a distance of 2 miles. We were on vacation and the only parts available was in portland and albany. Tied with a rope, I went to newport ore where we were staying. Blocked seatback with a laundry basket to come home to boise. Feel this is an equipment safety problem.
