Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Lumina owners report experiencing issues with the passenger seat being stuck and unable to recline. These problems may stem from various causes, including faults or damage to the lever, motor, wiring, or seat track. Additionally, some owners find that blockages from objects lodged in the seat mechanism can prevent proper reclining. Electrical connection issues under the seat may also lead to malfunctions, as damaged or insecure connections can disrupt functionality. Furthermore, a burnt fuse related to the seat recline function can hinder movement, and replacing it might resolve the issue. In some cases, owners may discover service bulletins from Chevrolet indicating that a stop inside the seat must be removed for proper operation. If these steps do not yield results, it may be necessary to investigate potential mechanical system failures affecting the seat.
