| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have had this problem since i purchased the vehicle, as you are driving the back of the seat will drop down. i had taken it in to the service center and made comment of this to which i was told i have never heard anything like it before. what i have found out over the years and miles, is that the seatbelt strap at the lap can catch on the release lever of the seat and any shifting in position will pull on the lever and release the seat back. this is just a warning to others as it can cause a fatal accident as it catches the unsuspecting driver off guard when the back of your seat falls. i have had this happen over a dozen times since owning the vehicle. |
