Consumer Description

THE BRACKET WHICH IS USED TO MOUNT THE SEAT TO THE VEHICLE BROKE AND THE SEAT IS NOT STABLE. THE BRACKET IS LOCATED UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT IN THE FRONT LEFT SIDE (CLOSEST TO THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR). FROM WHAT I HEAR ON THE PILOTEERS WEB SITE, SEVERAL FOLKS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS VERY SAME ISSUE. THIS OCCURRED AS I WAS DRIVING AND CAUSED ISSUES CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE, SINCE THE SEAT WOULD WANT TO RECLINE BACKWARDS WHEN ACCELERATING. I HAD TO BRACE MYSELF BY HOLDING ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL.
