What do you mean by bending? You mean like it's leaning to one side; leaning towards the center of the vehicle? Sounds like either the physical seat is broken and needs replacing, or the steal mounts that hold the seat to the body are bending/broken on the right hand side.... or your body is rotten and there is a hole in the bottom under the right hand side of your driver's seat.

Hey General..

It is the upper part of the seat.--the backrest...the right hand side(towards the centre) is bent(closer to the back seat) than the outside of the seat....guess it must just be broken...but i had been told that it is common in Chevy trucks(suv's)..

Just thought someone might have come up with a cheaper fix than buying a new or used seat..

Do you roll in the "gangsta lean" Meaning do you lean toward the center of the truck with the majority of your upper body weight on the arm rest or center console? If you do,that is what happens to the seat back over time.
