Details

What's wrong: The rear bench seat does not meet the load requirements of fmvss 207, "seating systems," because the manual latch mechanism on the folding full bench rear seat was attached to the back frame lower cross tube with domed head steel rivets instead of the bolts specified.

Why it matters:

The fix: The rivets must be replaced with the correct bolts.
