Consumer Description

WHILE TURNING A CORNER THE SEAT MOUNT (DRIVER'S SIDE) BROKE CAUSING THE SEAT TO IMMEDIATELY SLANT TO THE LEFT. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY TRAVELING AT A RELATIVELY SLOW SPEED, HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, PASSING A TRUCK THIS EQUIPMENT FAILURE COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AS I WOULD HAVE NO DOUBT BEEN DISTRACTED AND TRIED TO FIX OR ADJUST THE SEAT. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE FOR THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE LOW QUALITY PARTS BEING USED. NISSAN SHOULD TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS PROBLEM ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ONE OF THEIR MORE EXPENSIVE ONES CURRENTLY IN THEIR INVENTORY. *TR
