Description of the problem	Left side bolster of driver seat easily breaks. Cannont find a non- broken one at any salvage yard. And no local ford and lincoln dealer wants to fix it because in the event of having to replace the seat in order to fix the seat. They would have to order dozens of small parts. Even a local body shop refused to fix it because they couldn't find me a used one without that bolster broken. In my case i was leaning back to get something out of the back seat and it broke. I do this all the time in other cars and never have this trouble. I only weigh 150lbs. I believe that this is a saftey issue and would like to know why this happens only to the left bolster. The seat will look normal untill you move the bolster back and forth.
