Mid/rear Seats Assembly Problems of Chrysler 300M

I was stopped at a red light vehicle behind me did not stop and rear ended me. Both front seats in my car let loose and the seat backs went fully reclined. My wife and I were both laying on our backs with heads on the back seat. The car was still moving, it was hard for me to get upright and stop the car. Chrysler told me the seats are designed this way. Here is what they said "the seats in your vehicle. Our design to progressively tilt just during a rear impact collision. The idea behind that, is that it does lesson injuries to the front seat vehicle occupants once that happens so that would be a normal occurrence for your vehicle in a rear end collision". I say bullshit. If someone was in the back the seat would have broken their legs. It was not a"progressive" tilt, they flew back. They air bags did not deploy.

The contact owns a 2004 Chrysler 300m. The contact stated that while traveling 20 mph, the driver seat independently reclined backward into the rear seat. The contact removed the driver seat and discovered that the plastic actuator that controlled the seat had completely fractured. The bolts and structure of the seat were still in place however. The dealer advised that they were unable to replace just the part that had fractured but would need to replace the entire drivers seat assembly. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact expressed concerns of the safety hazard involved in the failure. The failure and current mileage was 123,000.

Made a moderately hard stop at a stop light and the bowling ball which was in the trunk, knocked the rear seat back flat and went flying forward hitting the drivers back seat.
