I HAVE CONCERNS OVER THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK IN MY 2000 GM YUKON XL. EVERY TIME I SLOW OR STOP THE SEAT TIPS FORWARD. THE SEAT BELT IS ATTACHED TO THE SEAT BACK. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAVE FOUND IT TO BE THE GEAR BOX DRIVEN BY THE ELECTRIC SEAT BACK MOTOR HAS PLAY IN BETWEEN THE GEARS.

I PULLED A BOAT WITH THE VEHICLE (2000 GMC YUKON XL 2500) ABOUT 275 MILES TO A LAKE AND PUT IT IN THE WATER. TOOK THE BOAT OUT OF THE WATER AND STARTED BACKING IT INTO A SPACE WHEN I HEARD A STRANGE "POP". THEN REALIZED THAT ALL POWER ASSISTED BRAKING AND STEERING WAS GONE. HAD TO LEAVE THE BOAT WHERE IT WAS, AND WAS HAPPY THE PROBLEM DIDN'T OCCUR WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY. TESTED THE VEHICLE TO MAKE SURE I COULD STEER AND STOP IT UNDER CAREFUL CIRCUMSTANCES, THEN DROVE IT DIRECTLY, SLOWLY, AND CAREFULLY TO THE DEALER ABOUT 50 MIL…
