Default Mk2 focus st seat

Is there a common fault with the drivers seat mine squeaks and moves about. I’ve read about a ford warranty fix? Anyone know about what that involves or know what wears or breaks. Before I take mine apart.

A common problem with these cars,there's a bar that snaps on the seat that needs re_welding.
maybe yours has just cracked causing the noise

I welded up mine after it snapped, as above it seems a fairly common problem.

Is it easy to spot if its broken or do you need to remove the seat?
