The front bolt that holds the drivers' seat severed off.

The consumer received a recall on the bolt under the driver's seat. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the problem was repaired. Three months later the popping noise started again. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who indicated that the bolt was fine but that the lever failed. The manufacturer was notified but the refused any assistance because the lever was not part of the recall.

Seat does not release to let back passengers out of truck. This problem is the second set of seat problems. I owned an Explorer Sport in 2000 and had the same problem with the seat. Ford is aware of the problem and is not dealing with the issue. I have small children who ride in the rear of the truck and if some thing happens to me up front, they are trapped in the back of the truck and unable to get out. Seems to be a seat mechanism problem which they refuse to address. This is actually a life/safety issue and I feel this needs to be addressed. Please contact me at your earliest convenience.
