NHTSA recall 17V401000

What's wrong: The affected vehicles may be missing the two front inboard attachments for the second row seats. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 207, "seating systems", and (fmvss) number 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages."

Why it matters: Seats with missing inboard attachments may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles to verify that they have the second row seat attachment studs, installing them if not, free of charge. The recall began on August 14, 2017.
