SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER
DRIVER'S SEATBACK FRAME BROKE. THERE IS NO REASON FOR SEAT FRAME TO BREAK, THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY MANUFACTURER AT NO COST TO CONSUMERS. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS SEAT WIL PROPERLY SUPPORT THE DRIVER IN A CRASH. IF ONE OF THESE TYPE SEATS WERE TO FAIL WHILE DRIVING IT COULD CONTRIBUTE TO A CRASH. *AK
