On 11/19/04 I almost was involved on an accident due to the failure of the driver back seat of my Ford Explorer 2000, 65,000 miles VIN #1fmzu72x2yua63728. I took it to my local Ford dealer for repair on 11/22/04, and I was notified that it was caused by a broken bolt and there was a recall on it and they did the repair free of cost. When I seated on the repaired seat I noticed that the back seat is no longer parallel to the steering wheel; it is approximately 2" twisted to the left. In addition, when I hold the top of the back seat I can tilt it forward and backward and it has about 6" of play. I brought the problem to the attention of Ford motor CO. And they say that the problem is not part of the recall and they will not repair it unless I pay for it. The Ford CO. Says that the problem is caused by a broken track at the bottom of the seat. I believe there is a flaw in the mechanism since a driver seat should last more than 4 years or 65,000 miles. The seat is unsafe and actions to correct the problem must be taken before someone dies. I hope someone can help me with the solution of the problem and can save someone else's life. I am fortunate to be alive. Sincerely, oswaldo demoura.
