Consumer Description

STARTED CAR AND BEGAN ADJUSTING SEAT. CAR WAS STILL IN PARK. HEARD A LOUD "POP" AND THEN THE DRIVER'S SEAT TILTED UP AND I WAS LEFT IN AN AWKWARD POSITION. TRIED TO MOVE SEAT AGAIN, SEAT JERKED AND WOULDN'T NOT ADJUST TO PROPER POSITION. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THE WELD ON THE FRAME BROKE. DRIVER'S SEAT NOW SLIDES AROUND WHEN YOU'RE SITTING IN IT, INCLUDING DURING DRIVING. FOUND OUT I WAS ONLY ONE OF DOZENS WITH SIMILAR ISSUE.
