Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Lever to recline and raise the seat has broken, not the plastic handle, but the metal that connects the lever to the seat. the metal is very coarse & brittle and doesn't seem suited to it's intended use. fortunately, my seat is stuck in an upright position. unfortunately, the break occurred post warranty. bottom line, the levers on the seats of chevrolet s-10's are junk, not intended to last, and could result in injury if locked in an unsafe position when the break occurs. *nlm
