Re: seats

That is the way GM designed them. They lock up in a sudden stop. I don't know why GM installed the latch for.

My seats never move. Must be talking about the seat belts. I had one do the same thing. Something was stuck in the track, not letting the lock work. Just an idea. Best bet it to pull the seat,& take a look. Its an easy job.
