What owners wrote
Front passenger and driver seat seatbacks broke during a 30 MPH rearend collision. Causing whiplash and brusing. 2002 honda accord with power leather seats.
The front driver side power seat broke. Something on the seat broke that caused the seat back to rock back. This happened several years ago. I took it to the dealer. They said it would cost $1500 to $2000 to replace the seat. The car was drivable. Earlier this year, a bracket that held the seat to the floor broke, causing the seat to separate from the floor. The car was not drivable. I had the bracket welded so that I could drive the car. On april 11, 2012, different bracket on the seat broke.
