| Description of the problem | I have a 2004 nissan murano which my wife and i love, but we have recently developed a problem that we haven't experienced before. The left side of the power drivers seat broke and the ride is very dangerous and unstable. I can only imagine what i will face if i ever have to suddenly stop my car. I'm currently searching for someone local that can weld the seat back to its base, but cost is a factor and so is time. It seems that this is a manufacture defect, and perhaps there should be some sort of recall to correct this issue before someone gets hurt and has to sue nissan. |
