| Seats problems |
My 2005 Ford explorer has 79,000 miles on it. Over the last year the padding/cushioning in the left front seat (the driver's seat), against the door, has deteriorated to a dangerous level. The metal frame is easily felt, with the driver's left arm, through the seat cover. In addition, the left side of the bottom padding feels one or two inches lower than the right side. This produces an awkward driving posture and the driver must lean against the door to compensate for the loss of cushioning.
