“The driver seat track in my 1996 mustang gt convertible broke at the welds on the left side resulting in the seat leaning as I go around turns which could have resulted in loss of control. The seat track parts need to be replaced. The seat is a power seat. There were no events leading upto failure. As I was going around a turn at 20 MPH the both snapped. I weigh 215 lbs.”
