| Description of the problem | The driver seat bracket broke on the left side. The seat now tilts to the left. When discovered vehicle was parked and not used. On that day i just sit in the car and seat tilted to the left. Looked under neat the seat and saw that the meat bracket that holds the seat broke in two. This is serious safety issue for me as a driver. I am just glad that the bracket did not break while driving that could have caused an accident. Read several forums on internet where people complain about same problem. Nissan needs to fix this issue. Recall is needed. |
