Description of the problem	While driving at highway speed (55mph), the drivers seat suddenly fell backwards. Luckily, it was only fell back on the left side. If both sides had broken, my wife might have lost control of the vehicle. Looking at the seat, there is a cross bar at the bottom of the seat back that had one side shear off. I've read a nhtsa report (see http://x. Nissanhelp. Com/forums/murano/12811-no-recall-murano-seat. Html) that says that "while the number of complaints of this problem is relatively high, only three very minor, undocumented injuries were reported. The reported injuries occurred during driver ingress, not while the vehicle was in motion. Investigation disclosed that the apparent risk of compromise to vehicle control has not been demonstrated." with the seat broken, i find it hard to believe that an investigator wouldn't find this not being a safety issue because it's very dangerous to drive the vehicle in this condition. If the right side also broke, it may cause the back of the seat to fall backwards and i would expect the driver to lose control. With the number of people posting this complaint online, i'm amazed that this hasn't resulted in a recall. Also, since i've read that nissan has redesigned the seat bracket, then this would confirm that there was inferior engineering done previously. Otherwise, they wouldn't have fixed it.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
