Consumer Description

I HAVE CHANGED THE DRIVERS SEAT TRIM PANEL MANY TIMES NOW WHERE IT IS HELD BY 4 CHEAPLY MADE PLASTIC TABS THEN ADD INSULT TO INJURY CHARGE OVER A $100 FOR A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC THE SIZE OF A SMALL DINNER PLATE. WHEN THIS BREAKS THE SEAT ADJUSTER SWITCH IS EXPOSES THE ELECTRIC CONTACTS TO TOUCHING THE SEAT FRAME AND SHORTING DRAINS THE BATTERY OR WORSE CASE MAY START A FIRE, IF CHRYSLER IS GOING TO BE ALLOWED TO MAKE SUCH A POORLY ENGINEERED PART TO START THEY SHOULD AT LEAST OFFER A REASONABLY AFFORDABLE REPLACEMENT, THIS REPLACEMENT SHOULDN'T COST MORE THAN 20 BUCKS
