Reported on Dec 26, 2011
| DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT WAS NOTED BROKEN BY MOSSY NISSAN (1546 AUTO PRKWY 92029) IN AUGUST 2012 DURING A REPAIR FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE. HEAD TECHNICIAN AT MOSSY NISSAN PAUL AND SERVICE MAN [XXX] CLAIMED IT WAS DUE TO A FAULTY WELDING JOB TO THE SEAT TRACK. REPAIR WAS MADE AUGUST 23RD DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS AND THE FACT THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE. MOSSY OFFERED A MORE COST EFFECTIVE REPAIR (ORIGINAL REPAIR ENTAILED REPLACING THE WHOLE DRIVERS SEAT TOTALING OVER $1,000 PLUS LABOR) BY OUTSOURCING TO A LOCAL WELDING SHOP FOR HALF THE PRICE AT $530. IT WAS ALSO NOTED THAT THIS PROBLEM HAD OCCURRED AT LEAST 3 TIMES TO THE SAME MODEL OF CAR IN RECENT YEARS. I DO NOT FEEL CONFIDENT OF WELDING JOB ON SAID VEHICLE DUE TO PAST REPAIR AT MOSSY NISSAN ON DECEMBER 26TH 2011 FOR REPLACEMENT OF REAR LOWER MOTOR MOUNT TOTALING $627.75. JUST MONTHS BEFORE THE NEXT WELDING REPAIR IN AUGUST 2012. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS A CONSUMER REPAIR FOR EITHER CASE AND I AM SEEKING THE FULL REFUND OF $530 AND $627.75 FOR SAID REPAIRS.
