problem #2

Sep 042004

Mustang 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 90,000 miles
During acceleration going up hill the driver side seat broke, cousing me to almost loos controll of the vehical. The top part of the seat is secured with only one bolt witch snaped, allowing the top half (back support) of the seat to fold completely back words on to the back seat. I wheigh about 180 lb, if there was some on in the back they may have been hurt, and I had to rely on holding the steering wheel to prevent me from falling back. To repair I had to drill the remaing half of the bolt out, and then rethred the whole, and insert a new bolt.
