Manufacurer	CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2004
File date	26/11/09
Component	SEATS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Driver's side seat track suffered material fatigue fracture. Seat frame is a stamped metal frame. The crack happened on the front left leg that attaches the seat to the floorboard. The seat track is stamped by a chrysler directed supplier and shipped to jci for assembly. Suggest chrysler to investigate seat movement (causing fatigue in the bend), material thickness and the possibility of adding a gusset (or brace) across the bottom of this bend in the track. This happened on my personal vehicle. I noticed some movement in the seat but i thought it was coming from the recline function. I was backing down a hill when it snapped causing me (the driver) to suddenly tilt backward. I was startled and the truck bumped into the mailbox at the end of the driveway causing a damaged bumper.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
