drivers seat doesnt want to latch (NOT part of the service bulletin for the seat rocking problem)

my mom moved my car this morning [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] and she moved my seat up [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] and i was trying to find exactly where it had been, and every time i moved it i had to wiggle the seat a little bit to get it to lock in on the left side. It didnt take too much, and once it locked in it was fine, but still a little annoying. My car is NOT one of the ones affected by the service bulletin on the seat rocking problem (I have a 2002). anyone else with a 2002 notice this at all?

You're right when you say it does not apply to 2002 civic's. I work for a Honda dealership in Montreal and so far this problem has not occured for any 2002 civic's. But what we would usually is try to claim the problem on a 2001 but get your car fixed instead. Or if you want I can send you the service bulletin, and anyother you might need. To try and do it yourself. I'm also able to get the shop manual.

mine isnt nearly as severe as the 2001 seat latching problem, mine will latch and stay in place, it just takes a little wiggle to get it to latch. i dont think its really something that will need to be fixed, just a slight annoyance.

nice to see another honda employee on the site with all the inside information

I'd have to disagree w CvcSI because I have a 2k2 and I had that damn annoying seat rock. It felt as if I were to loose control of my car everytime I changed gears. I took it back to my dealer and they fixed it. Really was annoying when it happened, it shook like crazy.

My 2k2 Vtec

Might need to adjust the track, both slide on seperate tracks and are not connected except for a spring and an arm.
