“After purchasinng my vehicle, I noticed a distinct hard object just under the seating surface. At first I thought it was a seat adjustment such as a lumbar support on the seat bottom, but that is not the case. I was, and still am, sitting directly on the motor controls for the seat. I contacted the dealer where I bought it twice about the problem and was told to take it to a dealer here in florida where I work. I took it to a Lincoln dealer in west palm beach. The service rep. Felt the seat and immediately told me that there was a problem with the manufacturing of the seat. …”
