TEXT: Gentlemen:

A General Motor's Customer Service representative referred me to your Administration when I requested that they authorize the moving of the front seat in the 1987 Chevrolet Caprice that I drive. The attached letter to Chevrolet explains the problem. Th e Customer Service Representative tells me he cannot, by law, move the seat.

Please tell me how Chevrolet can obtain authorization to move the seat in the 1987 Caprice.

Very truly yours,

Attachment
