What is wrong
On certain passenger vehicles, some front seat back recliner gear teeth may wear excessively through repeated use, which could cause the seat back to slip partially rearward when force is applied.
The risk
If this happens while the vehicle is being driven, it could cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the front seat recliner mechanisms. This is an expansion of a previous recall (99v045). Owner notification began january 31, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact saturn at 1-[removed], prompt 3.
