Description of the problem	Around march 23, 2020 i noticed my drivers seat moving when i accelerate or slow down. I thought the problem was loose hardware so i was going to tighten the mounting bolts over the weekend. When i started to tighten the hardware i found it was all tight. But the seat continued to move about. That weekend i removed the driver's seat and found the front right mounting point torn out of the sheet metal. The threaded re-enforcement tab had torn through the sheet metal used at the seat mounting point. I removed the tab from the seat and noticed that the spot welds had not failed it was the sheet metal brace bracket, it was attached to, that had failed. I first noticed the movement while heading home from work and accelerating from a stop. I was making a left turn from a 2 lane side road to a 6 lane divided city road. In the time that i have owned this vehicle it has never been wreaked, and to the best of my knowledge this vehicle has never been in an accident. I have gotten several repair estimates from collision shops. Universally all of the shops claimed to have never seen this kind of damage.
