Seat Broken problems of the 2009 Chevrolet Malibu

Back of drivers seat broke at hinge area or mounting bracket. The seat is now loose and unstable as it tilts to center console and is unstable both in accelleration and decelleration and feels like it will seperate from the seat mounting apparatus.

I was driving 25 mph in a school zone when it felt like another car had crashed into me , I looked in all my mirrors and there was no other cars around , I then notice my drver seat had me sitting lopsided and something was stabing me in the hip, something under my seat had busted, so I went home looked at it further and there was some type of seat gear that had come thru the fabic and thats what was stabing me. I took it to the local chevy dealer that I had puchaced it from and they said it happened because the frame to the seat had broke and give me a estimate $856. 00 just to fix the frame and that dont include the seat that the gears and ripped holes thru. I called the the Chevrolet company and they said there is no recalls on the seat so there not covering any of the cost. I looked online and there is a couple hundred other people who have the same issues with the driver seat in the Malibu models from 2004-2010. Thank god I was not on the interstate doing 70 mph or I could have been a serious accident injuring several others. My seat is now unsecure and unsafe redering the seatbelt also unsafe because the seat is not place properly.
