Flaccid drivers seat

Post by Chris »

Question for you all.I just picked up my Vibe (REALLY happy I purchased this car!!!) but the driver's seatback spring seems almost toast. If you sit up straight and pull up on the catch to allow the seatback to flip up towards your back, my seatback does not really move. The passenger seat will whack you in the back... what I expect. I presume I'll have to take this in to the dealer but I wanted some input first.Other than that, I LOVE this car!!! Base Vibe/power/mags

The passenger seat pivots differently than the driver seat due to its ability to fold forward totally flat. I've found the driver seat does pop forward quickly but you have to do more than just lean forward. Many times the small of you back (lower back) still touches the seat back and prevents it from popping up.
