Seat Broken Problems of Ford Fusion

The metal part under the driver side seat broke causing the seat to be some detached.

3 issues: I saw someone else post this- my break pedal is also soft and goes all the way down to the floor after antilock breaks are engaged (like on icy or wet roads). There is no other time this occurs- as it's the breaks, I've been very mindful of it. I have also had the breaks replaces so I don't think it's actually the breaks but rather somewhere within the breaking mechanics. Second, only when turning left, I get a "clunk" sound at about 1/4 of the way thru the turn. I thought the sound was coming from rear left axle area- but I honestly cannot isolate its origin. The third is my most hated: the rear of the drivers seat is breaking down- almost as though there's a framework of soldered metal inside in the core of the seat and the soldering is snapping apart. One of these days I'm going to fall back when the rear backrest completely breaks. I absolutely hate this- I have never had to buy a replacement seat before and I've owned Ford/Mercury products for 35 years.

I was a passenger in a 2009 Ford Fusion sedan. I am a state employee and I was traveling with a coworker, who was driving. We were legally stopped at an intersection waiting for the vehicle in front of us to turn left. We were rear-ended by a hit and run driver estimated by police on the scene to have been traveling at 50 mph. The majority of the impact was on the rear passenger side. We were pushed into the vehicle in front of us. Upon impact, I was thrust forward, then backward, and the seat back broke. I was in a reclining position after the accident. I have been diagnosed by two neurologists as having post concussion syndrome, traumatic brain injury, and vestibular dysfunction as a direct result of the accident. An investigator hired by my attorney concluded upon inspection of the car that the seat back should not have failed. I was seated properly with both feet on the floor and I was wearing my seatbelt at the time of the accident.
