Description of the problem	My wife was driving our 2006 nissan murano. Upon taking a turn, the drivers seat suddenly shifted to one side. (my wife is medium build, about 155 pounds.) when she returned home, i inspected the seat and found that one of the mounting braces under the seat had broken. The seat now rocks side to side. I researched this on line and found that this is not at all an unusual thing that happens to these seats. I went to my local nissan dealer and was told they have had 4 cases of this happening recently. The service man (scott) even told me this happened to his 2005 murano. Their solution was to replace the entire seat at an estimated cost of $1100. Even if i replaced the entire seat, there is no guarantee that the new seat wouldn't break as well, since it is the same design. They agreed that there has been problems with the seats, not only on the 2006 models, but other years as well. Since my vehicle was more than 36 month old, there was no warranty or replacement of any kind offered by nissan. They agreed that all that needed to be done was to remove the seat and spot weld the broken bracket, but that they "had no welding equipment" and suggested i find someone who welds and take care of it myself. It seems to me that nissan would be concerned that one of these seats might break while at expressway speeds, causing the driver to overshift and be involved in an accident. It is my hope that something be done by nissan to remedy this potentially dangerous situation. I am currently driving this vehicle with a 4x4 and 2x4 block propped under the seat to keep it from rocking.
