Consumer Description

DRIVER SEAT MADE SLIGHT BUMPING NOISE WHEN MOVING SEAT BACK AND FORTH ON A DAILY BASIS FOR ABOUT A MONTH. I WAS THEN INVOLVED IN A VERY LOW IMPACT ACCIDENT WHERE I WAS HIT IN THE RIGHT FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. AT IMPACT OF COLLISION THE DRIVERS SEAT COMPLETELY SHEARED OFF OF THE BRACKET. THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN! I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. IM NOW FIGHTING WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO FIX THIS SEAT. THEY ARE STATING THAT IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A SEAT TO BREAK LIKE THIS FROM A LOW IMPACT COLLISION. APPARENTLY FROM EVERYTHING I HAVE READ ONLINE IT TAKES VERY LITTLE FOR THESE SEATS TO BREAK AND THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
