Driver's seat frame replacement
 
Just wondering how common it is with Honda vehicles to have the driver's seat frame replaced under warranty.
I had mine replaced at 25K miles yesterday on my 2015 LX Fit.
For the last few months, the seat at the small of my back felt like it was moving forward upon deceleration.
They said at the dealership, it was something about the bushings in the seat frame that allows the seat back to pivot fore and aft.
It was a four hour repair job.
Anyone else seen this?

Older stuff like the Element, CRV some civics, etc had chronic issues with bushings in the seat height mechanism wearing out and causing the seat bottom to rock back and forth on accell or braking. I just did the driver's seat in my 06 Element with 155000 miles. $50 and about an hour of my time to make it like new.
