NHTSA Complaint #11099171 — 2003 HONDA PILOT

THE BRACKET WHICH HOLDS THE DRIVERS SEAT TO THE SLIDING BASE, SPLIT AND BROKE. THE BRACKET SPLIT AND BROKE AT THE TWO RIVET HOLES WHERE THE SEAT ATTCHES TO THE BASE. THE RIVETS ARE STILL IN PLACE ON THE PORTION OF THE BROKEN BRACKET WHICH REMAINS ATTACHED TO THE SEAT. INCIDENT OCCURED WHILE PARKED IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY. I WAS IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND REACHED INTO THE MIDDLE PASSENGER AREA WHEN I FELT THE DRIVER'S SEAT COME LOOSE. I DO NOT KNOW THE MOUNTING BRACKET PART NUMBER, BUT ON THE INTERNET I SEE OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM: THE BRACKET WHICH HOLDS THE DRIVERS SEAT TO THE SLIDING BASE, SPLIT AND BROKE.
