03- Seats And Restraints#2017567
69,839 units affected
On certain vehicles, the rear outboard strikers of the second row outboard (outer) seats have a collar to define two set positions. If an outboard seat is positioned over the collar while attaching the seat to the vehicle floor, the seat will not latch properly to the striker. An unlatched second row outboard seat could tip forward during moderate to heavy braking, which could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will install a second row seat striker bracket and a warning label on both second row outer seats. Additionally, dealers will also place supplemental owner information cards in the glove box.

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 207 - Anchorage of Seats. Due to a manufacturing error, the seat adjustment bar that controls the second row centre seat slide function may stick in the unlocked position, allowing the seat to slide freely and fail to meet the requirements of the standard. An unlocked second row centre seat may increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant in the event of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect the slide function for the second row centre seat and repair/replace the seat adjustment bar if necessary.
