Example complaints

“199 Honda accord - the weld on the right bracket on the driver's side seat failed causing the seat to recline backwards unexpectedly. I am only 195 pounds and have never had a seat fail in any vehicle I've ever owned. This should be considered a recall item. The seat failure resulted in me jerking the steering wheel and temporarily loosing control of my vehicle. Though I wasn't hurt it could have been worse had there been another vehicle in the lane I veered into. This is something that should be fixed at not cost to the owners of these vehicles.”
