Details

What's wrong: The driver's side front seat attaching riser welds were not correct.

Why it matters: The seat attachment strength would not be sufficient in the event of a vehicle crash increasing the risk of personal injury.

The fix: Dealers will replace the driver's side power front seat rise with a riser that was mig welded.
