NHTSA Complaint #10404484 — 2002 NISSAN MAXIMA

THE DRIVER'S SEAT IN MY 2002 NISSAN MAXIMA GLE DOES NOT MOVE FORWARD MAKING IT DIFFICULT REACHING THE PETAL. ALSO, THE SEAT CAN DROP TO THE GROUND MAKING VISIBILITY POOR WHERE YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOU. THIS PROBLEM JUST OCCURRED ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO OUT OF THE BLUE. I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO DRIVES THIS CARE AND RELY ON THE CAR FOR TRANSPORTATION TO WORK DAILY. IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS MATTER IS A THREAT TO THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVER OF THE CAR AND NISSAN SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THE PROBLEM. TOYOTA STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE AT LEAST THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMER'S SAFETY. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND I HOPE NISSAN LOOKS INTO THIS IMMEDIATELY. THANKING YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HOPE THIS WILL HELP EVERYONE THAT OWNS A MAXIMA BY NISSAN ISSUING A RECALL ON THEIR FRONT SEAT SAFETY MECHANISMS THAT ARE DEFECTIVE. I'VE NEVER OWNED A CAR WHERE THIS WAS AN ISSUE BEFORE AND WOULD NOT WANT SOMEONE TO GET INJURED B/C THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BY NISSAN. *TR
