Incident: January 25, 2014 · Filed: January 25, 2014

THE BAR IN THE BRACKET ON THE SUN-VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, THAT HOLDS THE VISOR IN PLACE AND ALLOWS IT TO SWING, KEEPS FALLING WHILE I AM DRIVING. I KEEP PUTTING IT BACK UP BUT AFTER A WHILE IT WILL FALL AGAIN. ALSO THE SWING BAR UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT, THAT ALLOWS THE SEAT TO MOVE UP, DOWN, BACK, AND FRONTWARDS KEEPS COMING LOOSE. THERE IS A BOLT THAT SCREWS IN THE BRACKET ON THE BAR AND WHEN IT COMES OUT THE SEATS FALLS TO ITS LOWEST POSITION AND THE MOTORIZED SEAT MOVEMENT WILL MOVE BUT AND ALLOW THE AHEAD TO BE RAISED BUT WILL FALL AS SOON AS YOU SIT ON IT OR EVEN IF ADJUSTED WHILE DRIVING IT WILL FALL. BOTH OF THESE ARE SCARY TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AND COULD CAUSE A PERSON TO LOOSE CONTROL IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING.
