| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The left front power seat base twists and rocks on its supports. this defect occurred within three months after purchase, the dealer is now installing part #xs2z5461711aa for the third time. i am concerned that if these seat supports fail this easily, how well will they perform in a crash? in addition, if these continually fail, a stronger brace should be installed, not the same part over and over. in reference to my second problem noted, the brakes shuddered within the first month of ownership. (1/99) the dealer cut the rotors and the problem reappeared soon after. again i returned the vehicle to the dealer, he informed me that the rotors are not covered under the basic new vehicle warranty. my concern is as follows: if the rotors are warped from the date of purchase, shouldn't the dealer replace them? nonetheless, i recently replaced the front rotors and pads at a sts tire store. |
