Details

Certain vehicles equipped with a manual driver's seat recliner may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 202 - Head Restraints and CMVSS 207 - Anchorage of Seats.

There may be an inadequate weld between the driver's seat back and the manually operated seat back recliner mechanism, which may fail to meet the requirements of the standards.

As a result, the driver's seat back may appear to be loose, twisted or lean to one side, and/or squeak/rattle.

If this condition were present, in the event of a vehicle crash, the seat may not adequately restrain an occupant and would increase the risk of injury.

Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the seat back frame.
