| Description of the problem | The power driver's seat is not attached at the front of the seat on either side. It is only attached on the back side. Both front welds appear to be broken. It does not respond correctly when using power controls. It shifts when entering the vehicle from side to side. Does not seem safe at all. There are no loose parts apparent in the vehicle. I am not aware of exactly when the welds broke. It occurred at around 74,000 miles. |
