DIY passenger seat moving when breaking

Please Help!!!

I have a 06 MCS and have had various passengers noting that the front passenger seat moves on breaking and heavy acceleration.

Has anyone else experienced this?

What is causing the seat to move and how do I fix it?

I would fix it by taking it back to the dealer

Make sure the adjuster is not hanging up first. There may be debris stuck in the adjustment mechanism, keeping it from locking. You may need to get up close with a mirror and light to see in there.

Are the seats moving on the runners or rocking?
