THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT RAIL SYSTEM WAS REPLACED BECAUSE A SUPPORTING METAL FLANGE AND BOLTS SNAPPED OFF.

THE FAILURE I HAVE IS COVERED UNDER A RECALL FOR 1993-1994 MODELS, RECALL #883. DODGE STATED THAT MY CAR IS NOT COVERED, ALTHOUGH THE RECLINER PIVOT BRACKET INDICATED IN THE RECALL NOTICE FAILED EXACTLY AS THE RECALL NOTICE STATED FOR THE VEHICLES COVERED UNDER THAT DOCUMENT. I FEEL THE 1995 INTREPID SHOULD BE INCLUDED TOO. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED WITHIN SUMMARY.
