Our car was hit from the rear while sitting at a stop light. The impact, of course, damaged the rear of the car. But, my concern is the driver's seat. The seat failed, it was broken to the point where it failed to remain up-right. The back of the seat failed to stay up and fell backwards. This could have caused a serious injury. I would hope this problem doesn't happen again.
