Default Passenger Seat turning into a Rocking Chair. Any 0thers?
When I brake with some authority, my passenger seat does a rocking chair motion, like the back bolts holding it down are coming loose. However, I have checked them and they are not loose. I even had the dealer check on my last service and they couldn't repeat the problem and found nothing loose. My Girl swears that she is going to go through the windshield one of these days when it lets loose. Anyone else out there with a passenger seat rocking chair or had it happen to them?

Guide rails are spent. Claim it as a safety issue. Been discussed several times.

Default Had both seat rails replaced on my 99 under warranty. Now
dealer tells me that up to a certain amount of play in the backrest (was it 3/8" maybe?) is "normal".

Default Same problem here, brought it to the dealership, and got a $900 quote for a seat frame replacement..
Told them to go F**k themselves and have dealt with the wiggly seat ever since...
