| Seats problems |
Floor at attachment point of front seat anchor bolt has cracked so that the front seat can rock up and down (this is described in Ford TSB 98-24-5 for 1992-1997 Ford Crown Victorias); will this defect affect occupant's protection in a crash, as the seat is now permitted to move in a larger range of motion during an impact than its original design specifications? Ford TSB lists this repair as applicable under its bumper-to-bumper warranty, but this defect may exist in out-of-warranty vehicles as well.
The driver seat slide track failed.
Arm rest paint/stain wearing off. Mjs.
