Details

What's wrong: The driver and passenger front seat manual reclining mechanisms do not comply with the requirements of fmvss 207, "seating systems." The seat back mechanisms will not latch under certain conditions.

Why it matters: The seats may recline without prior warning, resultingin a hazard to seat occupants and possible loss of vehicle control.

The fix: Replace the manual seat recliner mechanism with a mechanism that complies with fmvss 207.
