| 1997 | SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER | WHILE MY 13 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS THROWING A TEMPER TANTRUM (WHICH I DON'T NECESSARILY CONDONE) IN THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE SEAT, THE SEAT CAME OUT OF ITS SUPPORT TRACKS. WHILE THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN INJURY, I AM AFRAID THAT AN ACTUAL COLLISION WOULD CAUSE MUCH MORE SEVERE "JERKING " IN THE SEAT, AND RESULT IN THE PASSENGER BEING THROWN INSIDE THE VAN AND BEING INJURED. THE SEAT HAD COME COMPLETELY LOOSE AS IF IT WERE TO BE STOWED AWAY. *AK |
