When driving down the road at 25 mph the drivers seat all of sudden fell back (the top seat) and wont stay up in position. It seems that it is faulty due to a mechanism not being attach correctly. I have not been able to get the seat fixed due to high costs. Also the rear chassis brake tube seem to rust extremely and create itself a hole.
The driver's seat did not hold the weight of the consumer's back. The driver's seat snapped while driving.
While driving 25 mph consumer's vehicle was hit from behind and front seats went in a reclining position ,causing injuries.
We were recently rear-ended by another vehicle twice, and both front seats completely broke, and causes serious injuries to rider (tramatic concussion, head and neck injuries), injury to drivers back, neck & head. . . . Riderside also received terrible twitching in right hand and arm, and loss of use of right leg. . . This is a serious defect for front seats. . . They completely broke after throwing us backwards. . . . The drivers seat could not be removed off of second seat. . . It was stuck in reclinging position! if our children had been in the car with us, it would have caused serious injuries to their legs, probably would have crushed them!!! also, our insurance company only wants to give us used seats from another crash and put our material over them and install them into our van!! this is toitally rediculous!!! ifg ours broke, then another vans seats could also be weakend by a crash, and then we could possible be killed if we should ever be struck again!!!! we want to file a formal complaint to all parties involved with the Dodge front seats!!!.
