| Description of the problem | The front drivers seat has started rocking, forward and back. I believe the attachment to the traveler on the front of the seat has failed. The rear attachment is still there, but the seat actually rocks. This is a very dangerous condition, which should be covered by the manufacturer, since it is a design defect. When you accelerate and decelerate the seat rocks based upon the forces, which could lead to a traffic accident. The condition happened when i was getting out of the car. |
