Details

What's wrong: The front passenger seats have less lock pawl engagement on the inboard fore/aft adjuster than specified. This does not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 207, "seating systems."

Why it matters: This condition could result in seat movement with a belted occupant during a moderate to severe frontal impact.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the passenger seat inboard fore/aft adjuster.
