Transit connect broken seat problem

I have a 2016 transit connect titanium.  I have issues with a plastic panel breaking on both front seats.  I had the drives side replaced last month and it is broken again and I am waiting for the passenger side panel to come in.  I wonder if anyone else has problems with that? The part is the plastic panel on the door side of the seat.  The part on the drivers side has the switches to move the seat around.  The plastic where that part attaches to the seat frame actually splits and comes apart.

I have the same problem with the exact same year/build TC as you. Dealer says it's not a warranty item since the plastic cracked. Basically it's a bad design, not a defect, so it's not considered a warranty item.

 

I'm thinking of taking them off and reinforcing them with metal and epoxy and see what happens. Problem is you have to slide over them to get in and out of the car unless you are 7' tall.
