I WAS DRIVING ON FREEWAY WHEN A CAR THAT WAS TRAVELING IN AN EXCESS OF 80+ MILES AND REAR-ENDED MY 2002 FORD F 150.

I HAD A CONCUSSION, NECK INJURY, KNEES AND RE-INJURED MY BACK. I WAS LUCKY TO BE ALIVE.

UPON ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION, THE DRIVERS' SEAT BACK MOVED BACK AND FORTH. *JB
BOTH LOCKING PAWLS ON MANUAL SEAT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM DO NOT LOCK INTO PLACE WHEN SEAT ADJUSTMENT LEVER IS RELEASED. ONE OR THE OTHER PAWL LOCKS INTO PLACE AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF SHIFTING FORCE IS THEN REQUIRED TO MOVE THE SECOND PAWL INTO A POSITION WHERE IT WILL ENGAGE. THIS WOULD ONLY BE A MINOR INCONVENIENCE IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE SEAT BELT CONFIGURATION OF THIS VEHICLE. THIS SEAT BELT ATTACHES NOT TO THE SUB FLOOR OR PILLAR BUT TO THE SEAT ITSELF.

MY COMPANY PURCHASED THIS TRUCK FOR ME TO WORK IN \ WITH TO PERFORM MY JOB. THE SEAT IS TOO HIGH. MY EYES ARE LEVEL WITH THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD AND IT'S IRATAITING TO LOOK THUR THE COLORED PART IN THE TOP PART OF THE WINDSHIELD. SEATING THIS HIGH UP ALSO CAUSES THE REAR VIEW MIRROR TO BLOCK MY VISION IN THIS DITECTION. I CHECKED INTO GETTING A POWER SEAT BUT IT DOES NOT GO ANY LOWER. THE DEALER SAYS IS HE CHECKING THIS OUT. I ALSO HAVE TWO OTHER EMPLOYEES WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. WE CHECKED THE SEATS IN THE 2001 AND 2000 TRUCKS AND FOUND THAT THE HIGH SEATS STARTED IN 2001. THE SEATS IN THE 2000 TRUCK WERE JUST RIGHT. NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS OR IS IT JUST US? THANK YOU. *AK
