Goto your dealer, they should be able to help you out. I had problems with the braces that supported the seat in the sundeck position. My dealer said this problem happens alot with the DD and took pictures of it and sent it off to moomba. Well not sure on if it gonna get fixed, but the dealership called the other day and said our seat was in( which a replacement seat wouldn't help), but they may be able to send you a replacement seat due to complaints about the problem.
