What owners wrote
Crash in chrysler 300m. I had adjusted my seat when I got in my car. As I was driving, the seat detached from track and pulled away, subsequently I rear ended another car. I made the complaint to chrysler who made a recall on the seat bolt but I was not notified of the recall. I have had the same/forwarded address.
While driving driver side seat back declined backwards. Consumer was able to maintain control of the vehicle, and pulled to the side of the road. Vehicle was taken to a mechanic, who provided a temporary solution by tightening a bolt. The mechanic indicated that the failure will recur if the seat motor isn't replaced.
