Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Manual recline bar on both driver and passenger front seats broke. the first incidence happened on driver's side seat before vehicle was purchased (pre-owned vehicle). vehicle was under warranty and so bar was replaced. the driver's side recline bar broke a second time approximately 3-4 years later. the passenger's side recline bar also broke approximately 6 months to a year after that. because the seat was in an upright position when the recline bar broke on any of the occasions, had the seat been in a reclined position, the seat possibly would not have been usable. the recline bars on both side have not been replaced, as the cost is over $200 for each part. *nm |
