| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Getting into my 1996 jeep cherokee the nut which secures the drivers lower seat cushion frame to the seat adjuster pulled through the cushion frame. i am the original owner of this vehicle and it has never been in an accident and has 88932 miles on it.*ak i feel this is a safety issue. if this vehicle is in an accident the forces which would need to be resisted would far exceed those a person could apply getting into the vehicle. therefore, i feel this is obviously either a design problem or a manufacturing problem. i called 1-800-992-1997 and talked to their representative who said that if this was a manufacturing defect the vehicle is out of warranty, i.e. i have to pay to get this fixed. for safety reasons this must be fixed, do i use their products which might have a problem? are there any other reports of this problem? if there are any other reports of this happening add another one to the list. |
