Consumer Description

I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY GOING IN REVERSE AND WHEN I BRAKE TO PUT IT INTO DRIVE AND START DOWN THE STREET MY DRIVER SEAT ROCKED BACK ALMOST HITTING THE HEADREST ON THE BACK SEAT. IF I HAD BEEN IN TOWN AND TOOK OFF WHEN A LIGHT TURNED GREEN I COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND SERIOUSLY INJURED SOMEONE. MY VEHICLE IS A 1999 DODGE DURANGO SLT GOLD EDITION 4WD 5.2L . THE END OF THE ADJUSTER BAR UNDER THE SEAT SNAPPED RIGHT OFF. BEFORE THAT THE SEAT SHIFTED FORWARD ALMOST AN INCH EACH TIME I STOPPED MY VEHICLE. NOT SURE IF THAT WAS RELATED. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON 20 PLUS WEBSITES AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH BOTH OF THESE ISSUES. I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE GET HURT BY THIS OBVIOUS LACK OF ATTENTION IN DESIGN. *TR
