# Service bulletin A741316 2035814\-

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

- Type: Service bulletin
- NHTSA id: 10121508
- Published by NHTSA: 2017\-10\-31
- Manufacturer's number: A741316 2035814\-

## NHTSA's summary

The armrest will not operate in any direction. The height adjustment of the armrest will not engage or remain in position, or may become stuck in one position during height adjustment. If the armrest slides past its limit and the rods are pulled out of the armrest , it is because the retention of the bracket is insufficient. The armrest bracket is under tension because the guide plate has fallen loose from the bracket or the return spring has slipped from its original position.
