Description of the problem	The drivers seat foam is falling apart due contact with sharp edges in the support basket and frame welds. The seat motor has also stopped working. I contacted dodge customer service (care #[xxx])and was referred to the dealership to have the vehicle inspected. I had the vehicle inspected and dodge refused to make repairs. The vehicle only has 33,000 miles and the seat foam has to be replaced, along with the cloth fabric, that has a hole due to the rubbing of the fabric in the metal frame. I had to cover the seat with a towel to protect my pants, after i ripped three pair of pants on the sharp edges. I looked at a number of dodge owner websites and many owners are complaining about the same problem. One owner even posted detailed photos of how he repaired the sharp parts and replaced the seat foam after dodge refused to repair his truck. It is a clear defect and the truck should be recalled due to the risk of injury by the sharp parts. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
