| Description of the problem | While driving my 2005 nissan murano on sunday, april 11,201 , i heard something crack and my driver seat collapsed on the left rear. It appears that theseat frame broke. I have approximately 30,000 miles on my vehicle and i feel that this is a serious concern, as i had the presence of mind to pull over as soon as it happened. From an internet investigation, it appears that this is a recurring issue and should be addressed before some dies as a result of an apparent design flaw. |
