Details

What's wrong: The front seat head restraints were not welded properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 202, "head restraints."

Why it matters: Improperly welded head restraints can result in an increased risk of injury to seat occupants during a crash.

The fix: Dealers will replace both front seat head restraints, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 3, 2022.
