What is wrong

The risk

Cosequence of non-compliance: this condition can cause the seat to collapse during a vehicle accident and would not properly protect the occupant.

The fix

Dealers will inspect the left side seat back extender arms of the seats for missing welds. Welds should be on both sides of the seat back extender arm. If a weld is missing, the affected seat back frame assembly(ies) will be replaced.
