Consumer Description

WHILE I WAS ENTERING THE FREEWAY I FELT THE SEAT MOVED BACK I ALMOST GOT INTO ACCIDENT WHEN IT HAPPEN LUCKILY IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. I WENT TO A MAZDA DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM ABOUT THE SEAT THEY SAID ITS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY I HAVE TO PAY 800 PLUS LABOR TO FIX THE SEAT. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPEN I WAS AT THE STOP LIGHT AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURN GREEN THE SEAT MOVED WAY BACK AND I COULDN'T REACH THE GAS AND THE CLUTCH PEDAL SO I STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND THERE WAS TRAFFIC COMING, ALMOST GOT INTO ACCIDENT AGAIN. SO NOW I HAVE TO HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL AND MOVE CLOSER TO THE STEERING WHEEL JUST TO REACH THE GAS ,BRAKE, AND CLUTCH PEDAL AND THAT'S NOT THE PROPER WAY TO SEAT FOR THE DRIVERS IF ANYONE GOT INTO ACCIDENT THAT CLOSE TO THE AIR THEY MIGHT SUFFOCATE IF THE AIR DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM I DON'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN THIS TO ANYONE. I HAVE PICTURES TO PROVE IT. *TR
