Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2004
File date	13/11/18
Component	SEATS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Front driver seat mounting bracket/track break complaint: vehicle was stationary and in parked in a parking lot of my work. I was just getting into the vehicle when the front left driver seat bracket broke causing the seat to immediately start rocking side to side and towards the back. Upon inspection the bracket itself failed at a designed bend in the bracket just before the bracket attaches to the seat power sliding bracket. Material appears to be made of 1/8" metal problem: after time the bracket holding the driver/passenger side front seats to the frame of the vehicle begins to crack and break leaving the seat to rock and move as the vehicle is driven. This will lead to the seat possibly becoming disconnected from the vehicle frame in the event of a crash. File labeled: left brkt-driver seat - broken - is of the broken bracket. This part is on driver side towards the door. File labeled: right brkt-driver seat - nrml - is of the opposite bracket. This part is on driver side towards the passenger seat.
