Janice, for some reason I thought it was Lane recliner when I checked it out on the component list I discovered it is Seat Thec. I called the company at 574-534-8177 and I'm still waiting for a return call. The recliner is still under warranty. I sent a picture on my original post trying to show what I'm seeing. I have only set in the recliner a few times. I feel that the recliner is of good quality are it would not have been put in the Solitude. I would have taken it to the dealer but I'm in Scottsdale Az and the year warranty is up in the last part of March and we are not returning until April.
