My Rav4 has rust all over where the drivers seat as well as the passenger seats are attached to the car and seems to be so fragile that with any small impact the seat will detached from car and cause a tragic accident. The rust appeared almost immediately after it was purchased and was advised by dealership that there was nothing they can do about it. If this issue is not fixed in the future it can cause injuries or even death.

The front driver seat is loose to the point that it make sound when I break or accelerate. Because the seat moves, it makes me occasionally to get distracting while I am driving. The car is under guarantee because I just bought it, but the dealer refuse to do something arguing that the car is fine. I have drive so many different cars, and all of then do not have this type of problem.
