| Seats problems |
During normal use, usually when in motion but frequently when the vehicle is not in motion, the drivers seat suddenly flops backwards to the recline position. This has been an issue since the truck was about three years old. I took it to the dealer one time but they said they would have to keep the truck; that didnt work for me because I would have no transportation and I always have to go to work, then and now. I saw a recall on the 2010 for this and figured I would let you know it was for a lot longer than that. It might help explain some dead people in sport tracs. I certainly had some anxious moments at times in the 15 years with my truck. . Ive tried to fix it several times with no real success, a new seat is expensive, used seats are going to do the same thing but since my seat has also collapsed I guess I need to replace it.
