Consumer Description

THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT FRAME WELD ON THE LEFT SIDE HAD PREVIOUSLY BROKEN ON ME. NOW THE FRAME WELD HAS BROKEN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SEAT WHERE THE BASE OF THE SEAT MEETS THE SEAT BACK CAUSING THE SEAT TO TILT BACK AND TO THE RIGHT. THE WHOLE SEAT NOW WOBBLES. THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE SEAT FRAME DESIGN BECAUSE THE BREAKS ARE AT WELD POINTS. THE METAL IS THIN AT THESE POINTS. *TR
