My Mkx driver seat and passenger seat keep rocking back and forth. My fianc was driving 40 mph we start to slow down on a city street and as he is stopping his seat rocks back and his foot comes of the break and almost hits the back of another car. I'm sitting in the passenger seat also feeling my seat move as well. I look over at him and see his face and you can tell he got scared for a second because he is wondering why his seat rocked back and he almost hit a car in front of him.it is also happening when accelerating. Making it a safety hazard as well because you are slowing down while the driver behind us is speeding up and could possibly hit us because our foot is no longer on the gas.
Had all air filters replaced and air unit replaced due to over heating but still when turn air on and on seats jumps or loses throttle and lights go off and at times seats re adjust while driving, keeps happing can't figure it out
A piece of plastic broke on the power seat actuator, allowing the seat to change position unexpectedly, particularly when accelerating.. the manufacturer does not sell the broken power seat actuator separately. Instead, it wants $1100 to replace the entire seat base. The result in that people cannot afford to get this safety item fixed
Excessive play in seat assembly, drivers seat track bar was found to be deformed this defect allowed seat to move backwards with acceleration, forward when braking. Seat was repaired by certified mechanic and is now in operating condition.
