The contact owns a 2008 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that the middle bench (60/40 split) had an issue where the 60 part would constantly "pop" up towards the driver seat. The issue was noticed every-time someone sat in the vehicle. A 164-lb man was sitting in the seat and was lifted while the vehicle was in motion. She had to sit her child seat on the 40 part to avoid injury of her child. She took the vehicle to two different dealerships a total of seven times. The dealership could never find anything wrong with the vehicle that would indicate a cause for the failure. The manufacturer told her to take the vehicle to another dealer which she had an appointment set for 11/06/09. The current mileage was approximately 29,000. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000. Updated 11/17/09 updated 11/1/8/09
