As if my wife didn't hate this car enough already..

..she got in it today and went to adjust the passenger seat backwards, and the adjuster-lever got stuck in the "up" position but the seat wouldn't move. This is the lever on the front of the seat. She pushed back down on the lever and it broke off in her hands. She started yelling about how much of a piece of **** my car is with the water-bottle- ejecting cup holders and the squealing rear brakes. Man, it was classic!

Let me tell you, getting the front seat out of the car without being able to move the seat backwards and forwards with the use of the lever is a bitch. Handle's back on now. It was bent and came out of the plastic tab near the console that releases the catch on that side.
