Hey Mike, This same thing happens to my drivers seat! It just pops out on the side of the seat closest to the door, I usually just push it back in, but would also love to fix it permanently. I think it happens when I sit in quickly, but I'm not that big a guy either!! And also, my passenger seat is fine, and never does this. Let me know if you figure it out, Thanks, John, Ireland, Vin 3810. --- In DMCForum@xxxx, "dmcmike2002" <mcohee@xxxx> wrote: > Does anyone have problems with their Delorean drivers seat > back??? ....On a car a I test drove last year the owner didn't even > have it in the car becasue he told me it fell off as soon as he sat > in the seat....My car has the same problem.
