Consumer Description

DRIVERS POWER SEAT IS ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. THERE WAS NO EVENT LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE. ONE DAY I GOT IN THE CAR AND IT WAS ROCKING. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND FROM RESEARCH I HAVE DONE IT SEEMS THAT MANY OTHER 1998 DODGE DURANGO OWNERS ARE ALSO AFFECTED. THIS DEFECTIVE COMPONENT IS COSTING DURANGO OWNERS BETWEEN $500-$600 TO REPLACE. IF THIS SEAT ISSUE ISN'T ADDRESSED, IT CAN COST DODGE DURANGO OWNERS THEIR LIVES IF THESE "CHEAP" SEATS LET LOOSE DURING A COLLISION. I AM CALLING CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE TO REPORT PROBLEM. *JB
