Reclining seat in car that needs repair with driver’s seat in permanent reclining position!
Senior who recently went through unexpected divorce is trying to supplement income with driving for Uber, needs her driver's side, front, car seat fixed since it won't stay in an upright position. It got stuck in a permanent reclining position which is not recommended for driving and especially when transporting customers from the airport which is what she is planning to do considering that is safest place to obtain customers, for a female driver. She knows someone who is able to fix the seat, but needs about $250.00 for the repair. She is placing a cushion between her back and the seat but knows this isn't a permanent fix, nor would it be advisable for a "professional" driver and may even not be legal. It would correctly appear to be dangerous should the pillow become dislodged in the commute and cause her to be flung backwards losing sight of on-coming traffic and losing control of the vehicle. This would be a very hazardous situation, and she is aware that the current modification can only be temporary.$0.00 of $250.00
