Yup very common. My passenger seat's backdoesn't even stay in the position it is in when you sit in it sometimes. Every once in awhile it hits autorecline and pops back a notch lol. Scared the hell out of a buddy of mine when I took him for a ride.

I think it is accually easier with it being broke lol. You don't have to reach down to lean the seat forward, you just push.
