What is wrong

A securing clip on the outside of hinges of the left and right front seat back may not be properly seated due to interference with seat covering material.

The risk

An improperly secured clip could cause the seat backhinge to separate from its anchor in a rear-end accident and could result in an injury to occupant(s).

The fix

Realign seat covering material where interference is present.
