Seats problem #1

Tl-the contact owns a 2014 GMC Terrain. The contact stated that the front passenger seat would not move forward or backwards. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed that the front passenger seat track was broken. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.

Seats problem #2

1) brakes have always rubbed & grabbed really hard when applied. Almost like they are defective rotors. Hard to stop fast. I notice they recalled a lot of their brakes, but not mine. 2). Transmission jerks & shifts very violently @ 16 & 17 miles per hour. Seems to slip & not shift @ that speed really rough. Has always done this. 3) sometimes the collision alert goes off & there is nothing around I live in the country & have no traffic it will just go off scares the crap out of you & startles me. I saw another person had this happen also all situations are in motion while driving. Biggest concerns are the transmission & brakes. 4) okay seats are supposed to be leather however, they went cheapy on the sides. It cracked & continues to crack & tear because the sides are vinyl. This started to happen @ approximately 3,000 miles. I only have 32,000 miles on it. I don't drive much.

Seats problem #3

I had this car as a rental. My wife was in the passenger seat and uses a cushion to sit on, because of back problems. We noticed that air bag "on" light was not lit. When she took away the seat cushion the airbag "on" was lit. I don't know if this is a problem, but there was no warning msg anywhere about using a seat cushion. There was no override switch to force the airbag "on" light either and activate the system.
