| Description of the problem | Began driving vehicle a week ago, used to be my wife's vehicle. I noticed a squeak in the driver's seat, and noticed it wiggled. I examined the mounting bolts, and all 4 seat bolts were loose, not even finger tight. The only service performed anywhere near the seat was recall work on the floor mat retaining clip and a seal in the brake master cylinder, both recalls were done simultaneously at rudy luther toyota, 8805 wayzata blvd, golden valley, mn 55426. Recall work was done a couple years ago. I tightened the bolts with my own tools. Passenger seat bolts were tight. |
