| Description of the problem | The driver's seat suddenly broke, which startled me and caused me and the seat to lean back and to the left. The seat seems to be anchored on the right, but is loose on the back left, so it now rocks back and forth - especially when cornering. I read online of many other instances of this occurring with other nissan murano owners but there does not yet seem to be a recall. There is, however, a nissan tsb out on this subject, #05-043c. *cn |
