2007 Pilot, 165k miles and only sign of wear is volume controller on steering wheel. Noticed driver seat was moving like a slight rocking when getting in and out last couple weeks. Today while reaching for seat belt it popped and front left side is now completely loose. When accelerating it rocks back a good bit. Looked at underside of seat and can see where an L shaped bracket used for mount is sheared in half.

Got online and found this is not an uncommon problem. BUT IT IS A VERY UNSAFE ISSUE WITH SEAT DESIGN !! Never had a seat mount break in any car owned before and wonder why it has never been a recall to have fixed. THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE FAILURE RIGHT UP THERE WITH SEA BELT AND AIR BAGS!!

I have read several posts on forums that give suggested repair from having to buy OEM bracket from Dealer at full price because they don't see it as recall or warranty problem to removing seat and having part re-welded and reinstalled by yourself and DIY repair beware because of all the electronics connected to seat.

So anyway needed to vent but Honda engineers should be made aware of this issue to protect other Honda owners from possible failure or even Death during accident when seat and person are thrown from vehicle because of shoddy designs!
