The contact owns a 2006 MINICooper. He stated that while driving at 45 mph when he leaned forward to adjust himself on the seat, the seat broke and went all the way to the back. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer who stated that the vehicle no longer had any warranty to repair. The contact had the seat welded so that he was able to drive it. The failure mileage was 54000 and current mileage was 61419. Updated 05/06/10. The consumer stated his wife was driving, when she almost lost control of the vehicle when the seat collapsed backward. The passenger side seat has no lock forward and the consumer was almost thrown forward into the windshield. Updated 07/14/10.
