I was grocery shopping and when I got in the car to go home there was a clunk noise and I was reclining in the drivers seat. I could not upright the seat so it would stay in place. I put the seat belt on and held down the console and made it home scared but safe. I looked under the seat and found a bolt broken off. I did receive a recall notice for the bolts some time ago and took the car to the local Dodge dealer. I assumed the problem was fixed although I had not had a problem until today. Can I go back to Dodge to have it fixed? obviously it wad either not replaced or I got a faulty bolt. Please help.

I was traveling home from work at 60 mph, when the back of my seat collapsed and I lost control of the vehicle momentarilly. Upon examining the seat at home I found the bolt which holds the seat upright had sheared off. The bolt appears to be a composite material and not a strong metal. No way this should have failed. I see two more reported cases, which leads me to believe there are hundreds more out there, but are being repaired under warranty and not being reported.
