The seat track for the car continues to be defective. Car seat "rocks" excessively - causing significant distraction in heavy/emergency braking. The front seat track was replaced once under warranty. This is a frequent problem with this model car (1996-2003). Manufacturer should be asked to replace or repair the seat tracks to allow drivers to maintain control in critical situations.
