This is a 2011 LT with power seats.

So, my drivers seat pops up about 4-6 inches when I get out of the car, when I sit in the seat it wont return to its original position until I push on the lower seat switch, then it falls with a loud thunk.

I removed the seat and found that the guide arm that raises and lowers the seat has sheered at a weld spot.... wow.

My question is: if I cant get this piece welded back together, which part would I need to buy to replace it. Would it be the harness or the seat frame? Im pretty sure its going to be the seat frame but just want to be sure.
