SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
I WENT TO EXIT MY VEHICLE, IN PARK, WHEN I BUMPED THE #2 MEMORY SEAT SETTING ON DOOR. THE SEAT WENT ALL THE WAY FORWARD. I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL AT GETTING IT TO STOP OR GO IN REVERSE WHILE IT WAS MOVING FORWARD. IT WAS HARD TO GET OUT OF THE SEAT. MY RIBS WERE SORE FOR 1 DAY. THE SEAT WAS NEVER PROGRAMMED BEFORE THIS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DANGEROUS FACTORY SETTING. I CALLED CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE AND THEY WERE USELESS.
