My seat moves - Is this a known problem??
My driver side seat feels like it rocks back and forth while I'm driving. Just started happening recently. Anybody else ever have this problem? If so what is the fix? I looked at the bolts and everything seems tight.

If Your Seats Are A Rockin...........
Your Tracks Are Just Plain Worn Out!
This shim kit stops your (electrical) seats from sliding forward and rearward during braking and acceleration because of "worn-out" stock seat track shims. It includes 4 simple, self-lubricating shims that replace the stock shims (GM doesn't sell replacements) and 2 special Torx L-keys. Both of the L-keys are not generally available at the regular retail stores and one of the L-keys is specially sized to fit between the seat tracks.
Until now the only repair option has been to buy new seat tracks for over $500. Easily repair it yourself at home. Includes step-by-step instructions. Only $24.99
Feel free to order securely online: http://store.tkoperformance.com/c5seshkitpsl.html
A little nifty DIY'er we thought you would be interested in...
We will have these in 5/27 and will start shipping then.
Thank you

Unfortunately, it is a common problem. Many posts here about the fix. I do have some Word files that show the repair. If you want a copy, PM me your e-mail address and I'll send them to you.
