| Description of the problem | Suddenly, while driving my 2007 nissan murano today, i heard a "snap" sound, and the driver's seat began leaning to the left. Not feeling safe in the car, i stopped to inspect the seat, and found that the steel frame was broken under the left rear corner of the seat cushion. The car has been driven 50,000 miles at this point, so it is no longer under warranty. This is obviously a safety issue for this vehicle. |
