#736206 | Crash
I AM WRITING TO REPORT A PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH OUR 1996 MAZDA 626. I HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE THE DRIVER'S SEAT COLLAPED WHILE DRIVING. THE INCIDENT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, RESULTING IN APPROXIMATELY $720 WORTH OF DAMAGE. NO ONE WAS INJURED IN THE ACCIDENT AS I WAS TRAVELLING VERY SLOWLY. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED A SECOND TIME WITH NO ACCIDENT, BUT I AM UNWILLING TO LET MY WIFE DRIVE THE VEHICLE NOW DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. I AM CONVINCED THAT IT IS A DEFECT- A DANGEROUS ONE. I NOTICED ON YOUR ODI LIST THAT SOMONE ELSE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM (ODI ID NO. 823823). I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT THEY HAD NO KNOWLEGE OF ANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I SHOULD PROCEED WITH THIS PROBLEM. I THINK MAZDA SHOULD REPAIR THE DAMAGES AND CHECK THE SEAT TRACK ASSEMBLY. IS THIS UNACCEPTABLE? THANK YOU. GREG...
