Seats problem #1

1) a bracket that connects the seat to the rails that are attached to the floor had a weld break. Photos provided below. 2) the seat is no longer attached to the car in this particular part 3) no 4) I took the car to my dealer who did not physically look at it but refused to do anything to help me because the car was no longer within warranty period. They could provide me a quote only after I paid a $220 diagnosis fee. The part to repair is $1,020 before diagnosis charge, labor, and tax. 5) there were no warning or symptoms prior to the failure.

Seats problem #2

Back latch that makes the seat fold down won’t snap back into place.

Seats problem #3

Car had problems with driver seat not clothing in right and sometimes moves back while driving. Seatbelts do not want to click right and have to push in multiple times before you can fasten belts. While trying to accelerate the transmission stalls and jerks forward and vehicle sometimes shakes while driving. Does not want to pick up sorry either.
