Official Statement
A video is circulating on social media discussing the use of structural tubing within the internal frame of Chevrolet Onix seats.
We would like to clarify that these structural tubes and metal rods are intentional components of the seat frame design. Their dimensions and the materials used comply with the approved design documentation and established technical requirements.
Chevrolet Onix seats have undergone all necessary testing and evaluation in accordance with General Motors’ international standards, as well as all required validation and certification procedures.
The presence of structural tubing does not, in itself, indicate any defect in the product. One cannot draw a valid conclusion regarding the overall quality or safety of a seat based solely on the appearance of individual frame components.
Regarding the appearance of these concealed metal elements, the technical specifications do not require them to have a decorative finish or coating.
