Description of the problem	I am entering this complaint in relation to other complaints that have been filed. There is a defect investigation taking place (ea12003 and pe11039) for this issue already. I attempted to put my 3rd row seat back up and lock it into place. On the drive side i noticed that it would not lock into place. After further review, i know noticed that the whole latch had fallen off and was laying on the back driver side wheel. The whole plate rusted thru and fell off into the wheel well. I've had this car since 2004. Yes i live in a snow state that uses salt, but this car has been in the garage its entire life. I would like to understand what stance, if any, ford is taking with this issue.
