My driver's side seat is not attached completely and is wobbly. I fear that it is not safe.

Nissan has a problem with there seats seem to be that the bases break and let the seat rock (tip) forward when you stop and then back again when you go.I have found thousands of this problem on internet and when I went to dealer they had two more on lot with same problem.It cost $ 880.00 plus labor to repair.New seat was installed and only 28,000 miles on car.I beleive this should be a recall !!!!
