Front Seat Power Adjust Problems of Jeep Grand Cherokee - part 2

The driver seat on my 1999 Jeep cherokee laredo have given way. Both support bolts have sheared leaving the seat unsupported. This happened in normal driving conditions. I contacted Chrysler, with no satisfaction. I was told that the car is out of warranty. This seems to be a serious defect in the seat support system.

While adjusting power seat a piece of metal bracket that attaches the seat to the rail assembly fractured for no apparent reason. Dealer states since warranty period was over there is little they can do and that they are unaware of any similiar complaints.

Broken seat frame; drivers side seat frame is broken, and will not move foward . All other functions of the power seat work. I am only 225 lbs, how can this happen. And I will not spend $900 at the dealership to fix this, for the lack of quality that was put into this automobile when it was built.

Broken elevator bracket on drivers power seat. The front left bracket has broken at the weld. It does not appear that this weld had been adequately fused to the axis shaft. The bracket broke in half at the point where it is intersected by the axis component. Sometimes this seat rocks backward suddenly when driving which diminishes my ability to control the vehicle. I am more concerned that the drivers seat is not anchored to the vehicle chassis as designed. In the event of being the victim of a rear end collision, I anticipate being thrown to the rear of the cab due to lack of restraint. I am virtually the only person that has driven this vehicle and the seat has only been elevated from its lowest position a few times. The repair estimate is $586 (to replace the entire assembly) as the warranty has expired. This failure is clearly a manufacturing defect and not due to wear or misuse. The failure of this component significantly compromises driver and occupant safety.

When driving both front power seats wobble from side to side. Vehicle has been taken to dealer 4 times. Dealer stated it was a characteristic of the vehicle, and there was nothing he could do. Consumer has filed for the lemon law.

Interior lights will flicker on and off/ electric door locks will lock and unlock, and light on dash showed that doors were open in vehicle. Also, while vehicle was in operation, driver's seat moved forward and up, which pinned driver to steering wheel. Consumer was able to pull vehicle to side of road. Dealership has examined vehicle, and could not determine that there was a problem. Please provide any additional information/attachments.
