Passenger seat crooked, normal?

I noticed this the other day. Is the passenger seat supposed to be crooked like seen in these pics. The car was involved in a minor accident but i dont think that would cause this. It looks like the base is fine but the back part of the seat kind of tilts toward the center console. And if this isnt normal, how can i fix it.

It happened because the recline holds the seat on the right side. In the accident it bent on the left because there was no support there.

I got a set of seats from a wrecked 97 and had the same issue. You will have to dissasemble the back to fix it. Remove the cover and foam them rebend the frame.

Or you could report it to the Insurance company as part of the accident damage.
