Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with manually-adjustable front seats. The front seat track end-stop bracket may become deformed, which could prevent the seat from locking into place.
Why it matters: A seat that is not properly locked into place can move unintentionally during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace the front seat tracks, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on October 28, 2021.
