Front Seat Power Adjust problem #2

Ford recall 19c07- { applies to vehicles equipped with one or more mechanical front seats- potential lack of seat restraint in the event of a crash}. I received this notice by mail and made an appointment for my 2019 Ford Explorer at 'gary yeomans Ford palm bay' zip-32907. They did not repair this recall. I took my vehicle in on 07/27/20. My repair order states their tech #5534 found: "this vehicle does not have one or more mechanically adjustable front seats. Both seats in this vehicle are electronically controlled". The VIN says they both are power-which I questioned at the time of purchase-at this same dealership. I waited 3 full days for my vehicle to be repaired without a loaner vehicle-while this tech was too lazy to walk from the driver seat to the passenger seat to inspect that it wasn't a power seat. I also requested the 2nd row passenger seat be repaired or replaced. It continues to get stuck and won't fold up or click into place in the upright position. Twice it has jolted forward in the open position upon braking, while driving on the highway, hitting the front passenger seat. One of these times my granddaughter was sitting in this seat - I can only thank god she wasn't a toddler. For this reason my passengers cannot sit it in it - it very well could kill them. This same technician states on my repair order: "verified that the rear second row seats fold up and down and operate properly". I have been grilled about giving a five star review.
