I just bought a 2023 Silverado last week. I've got about 500 miles on it so far and the driver seat just started wobbling. It's just enough to be irritating. I appreciate the easy fix, so kudos to you guys. It's really shameful that GM hasn't corrected the design by now.
Glad we can help you out. If it continues or you have any other trouble we have another fix that works just as well. We've linked that video here for you: th-cam.com/video/0YywduV5Udo/w-d-xo.html
Simple and easy fix just like you said, for those who have this problem then you found the solution and show us that it’s easy to do! Great and thanks!
This is crazy. I was quoted 175 to fix this at stealership. Said they needed to take seat apart. I knew it was easy from the vid u mentioned. U made it easier thanks. 5 bucks for my part. Now to tackle it.
Hey Chad! Glad you found the video. $175.00 is absolutely unbelievable. Also, this fix doesn't always work. We are going to make a new video about a sure fix. Keep your eyes open for that soon. In the meantime pop that part on and let us know how it goes for you.
@@TheBrothersWorkshop Funny thing. After I commented. Looked under the seat. They already had a retainer in there. So they never fixed it with the retainer. Still shifts. Can’t wait till you post that video now. Tnx for reply.
We're currently putting the fix through the ringer to make sure there are no more issues. Hopefully everything stays secure and we can start film/editing the video this coming week. Cross my fingers two weeks the video will be live. 🤞
thanks for the tip... i installed it and it was "tight" for a day but there is still some 'play' and i can feel it when i turn say at a red light left or right.. that 'click' feel'..... so i will probably put some rubber tubing and hose clamps around the white thing.. but THANK YOU for the tip.
The same thing happened to me. So, I did some research and over the last few months I came up with a solid fix. I've linked that video below: 👇 th-cam.com/video/0YywduV5Udo/w-d-xo.html
Have you heard of a case where with the fuse for the seat is in place the gauges dont work but remove the fuse the gauges work but of coarse the seat does not.. Repair ideas????
Hey Ricky, that's a very interesting issue that I have not heard of. It sounds like you may have a bad ground or a short. Let us know if you ever figure it out.
This brings back the time I test drove a 99 Silverado LT at a dealer lot and the driver seat moved up and back because of this same issue I never bought the truck but I’m sure it would have been an easy fix that was back when I was 16 or 17 I’m now 22 lol. They wanted $5500 for that truck I’m like there is no way lol
I believe this same part is used in multiple different vehicle platforms. Depending upon the vehicle you have, you'll need to make the trim I described.
It's most likely the fix you need. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work. We are in the process of some R&D right now. We should have another video out soon with a DIY solution that will fix it for good.
The retainer should fit a 2018 Silverado/Seirra if the underside of the seat matches the one seen in the video. You can pick this part up at your local GM dealer. Remember, this part is not necessarily for these trucks. That is why the GM bulletin requires you to trim the part.
If you watch the video, I show exactly what to trim. I recommend going back and watching it again.... 😑 You can also reference the link in the description that I spoke about.
Our second video explaining an alternative way to fix this issue: 👇

Awesome. This has been driving me crazy since I bought my used 2016 gmc truck last year. Thank you!
No problem! It's a quick $3 fix.
Simple and easy fix just like you said, for those who have this problem then you found the solution and show us that it’s easy to do! Great and thanks!
Thanks Henk! Trying to make it easy for everyone. 🙂
Thanks so much,! Took less than 15 min and bought the part myself- box cutter worked fine to trim- no more seat shifting! Cacelling my dealer appt!
Glad to hear it Matt! We're stoked it worked for you. 🙌
Just did mine. Thanks for the video hope to god it works
Let us know how it holds up!
Thank you 🙏🏾
No problem man! We have an update coming soon!!

I hope this works. Just ordered the part!

@@TheBrothersWorkshop worked like a charm. It was really annoying and it’s so funny how easy of a fix it was! Thanks again for this video!

Hey Ricky, that's a very interesting issue that I have not heard of. It sounds like you may have a bad ground or a short. Let us know if you ever figure it out.
Is this for front to back movement or side to side?
Hey Wade, please watch the video. It's all explained.
This brings back the time I test drove a 99 Silverado LT at a dealer lot and the driver seat moved up and back because of this same issue I never bought the truck but I’m sure it would have been an easy fix that was back when I was 16 or 17 I’m now 22 lol. They wanted $5500 for that truck I’m like there is no way lol
This issue is a lateral movement, but definitely a similar issue.
My seat dose not exactly move but it is the slightest of a click something like that on almost every turn, could this be the same thing
It could possibly be the same thing. I got a slight click but obvious movement.
This seat moving, is it associated with a clicking type noise? I feel like I’m experiencing the same thing with my 2014 Silverado.
Yes, this issue has been know to be associated with the clicking noise.
I have 2021 1500 at4
And 2021 Yukon xl
Has loose issue as well .....
The seats in those vehicles have been updated but look and see if this may work for you.
@@TheBrothersWorkshop I know ..... First time ever found sliding seats ......
Did you end up fixing the issue?
@@TheBrothersWorkshop tech can not duplicated problem. I have 1500at4 and new Yukon xl has same problem
That's interesting. 🤔 Let us know if you ever figure out the issue.
Does this work for 6gen camaro too ?
I believe this same part is used in multiple different vehicle platforms. Depending upon the vehicle you have, you'll need to make the trim I described.
So my seat feels like it goes side to side 2014 GMC Sierra. I watched the video but I’m unsure if this is the fix or not I need???
It's most likely the fix you need. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work. We are in the process of some R&D right now. We should have another video out soon with a DIY solution that will fix it for good.
@@TheBrothersWorkshop I will definitely keep a look out for your next video. The seat movement stresses me out. Thank you for responding.
The link states this part does not fit a 2018 Silverado
The retainer should fit a 2018 Silverado/Seirra if the underside of the seat matches the one seen in the video. You can pick this part up at your local GM dealer. Remember, this part is not necessarily for these trucks. That is why the GM bulletin requires you to trim the part.
Thanks man. I will try it out for a few bucks
Let's us know if it works!
You didn't show what you had to trim on the clip
If you watch the video, I show exactly what to trim. I recommend going back and watching it again.... 😑 You can also reference the link in the description that I spoke about.
