Driver seat loose??

[Tahoeboss]

@Tahoeboss Thank you very much. Will keep the same in mind. I too am kind of observing it further to be sure about the issue before I go to my dealership guns blazing.

Got that right! LOL

Hmmm I thought that a shifting seat was normal for a GM product?

I found the TSB for the loose seat this afternoon. It is 18-NA-377 from April 2019. Covers Yukons from 2015-2019. Going to take it to the dealer tomorrow to see if they can get this resolved. Here is the link: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10160120-9999.pdf

Well I’m finally taking my ‘21 Yukon in for this problem day after tomorrow. Let’s just hope the dealership doesn’t give me a load of crap.

I have 2021 Tahoe premier. I have recently noticed that I can feel a slight shift in the drivers seat forwards and backwards. I notice on accelerating and can feel the seat move backward. I can replicate if I push back hard with my legs. I first noticed a month or so ago but it stopped and I forgot about it. I took to dealer for recalls last week and now I swear I notice it every time I drive. Anyone else have this problem? Seems different than what the OP was experiencing.

One other item to add. The recall that was done was the replacement of the driver seat inboard airbag electrical connector. Not sure what that entailed and if this could be related.

Actually with passing time my problem has become exactly what you have described above. I took it into the dealers. They gave it back the very next day saying that the seat base needs to be replaced and seeing that it is a VIP part, it will take some time; perhaps a month to month and a half. Upon me inquiring what a VIP part was because I was wondering that something VIP should come sooner no??...so the service advisor informed me that at their dealership a “VIP part” is one that is not available anywhere in the region, leave alone anywhere within the country and hence has to be imported in from the US. I asked him “Whats so VIP about it??” To which he said....”it comes from the US”

So for you guys it’s nothing special....it’s just from home

Thanks for sharing. I can grab the lower part of the seat and pull back and forth and replicate. Will have to call the dealer Monday.

Hey guys,
any update on this issue? I am having similar problems. My 21 is one of the first as I bought it last year around this time. I had to have the seat ripped apart a few times for the safety restraint issues. The seat makes noise over any bump or shift in weight and just does not feel right. Going to take it in as I have a few other recalls.

I never did anything with mine. Feel like the problem went away for the most part. Not sure if maybe is temperature driven. It hasn’t been bothering me enough to take in but will mention the next time I bring in. I bought mine in October 2020.
