Front Seat Power Adjust problem

The left front power seat base twists and rocks on its supports. This defect occurred within three months after purchase, the dealer is now installing part #xs2z5461711aa for the third time. I am concerned that if these seat supports fail this easily, how well will they perform in a crash? in addition, if these continually fail, a stronger brace should be installed, not the same part over and over. In reference to my second problem noted, the brakes shuddered within the first month of ownership. (1/99) the dealer cut the rotors and the problem reappeared soon after. Again I returned the vehicle to the dealer, he informed me that the rotors are not covered under the basic new vehicle warranty. My concern is as follows: if the rotors are warped from the date of purchase, shouldn't the dealer replace them? nonetheless, I recently replaced the front rotors and pads at a sts tire store.
