What is wrong

A weld in the seat rails was not made, increasing the risk of fatigue cracks forming around the attachment bushings on the height adjustment mechanism, causing the possibility of the height adjuster breaking in a rear end collision and allowing the seat to fold backwards.

The risk

This can increase the risk of injury to seat occupants.

The fix

Dealers will install new front seat frame rails.
