Front Seat Recliner Problems of Volkswagen Jetta

We recently purchased a 2005 Volkswagen Jetta station wagon. On January 5, the drivers seat came off, (unattached,was disconnected ) from the track on the car. Wolkswagon has fixed this at no charge but there needs to be an investiagion into whether there are other cars out there with the same problem. This could have been a terrible tragedy if I had been involved in an accident or it had unattached completely while driving. The volkswagon dealership would not say wether it was a parts problem or an installation problem.

The mass air flow sensor failed four times and was replaced. A recall letter was received, and consumer was not satisfied. Fuel mixture in the vehicle was still defective. Also, frame on the seats broke on seven occasions and repaired by the manufacturer.

There is a spring under the driver's side seat of my 2000 vw Jetta that has become detatched and fallen off. When you accelerate or brake, the seat shifts backwards or forwards. When I took the car to the local vw dealer for service, the technician, without hesitation, said that vw does not replace the spring, but has to replace the entire seat at a cost of $500+ dollars. His rapid response leads me to believe that this is a widespread problem with vws. I think it is an unsafe condition.
