Carpet - Front Seat Chucking Condition
Number: 85-182Section: 10
Date: FEB., 1986
Subject: FRONT SEAT CHUCKING CONDITION
Model and Year: 1985 SPECTRUM
TO: ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS
CONDITION:
Some 1985 Spectrums with VIN numbers prior to 444391 may exhibit a chucking condition of the front seat. This condition can be due to the carpet being trapped between the seat mounting and the floor. This can cause a loss of retaining torque at the seat adjuster attachment nuts (2).
CORRECTION:
1. Remove (or sufficiently loosen) the seat adjuster nuts - see Page 10-34, Figure 10-72, Item 1 in 1985 Spectrum Shop Manual.
2. Remove carpet from underneath seat adjuster in area of attachment. Cut away excess carpet material.
3. Reinstall attaching nuts and torque to specification.
Use applicable labor operation numbers and labor time.
