## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the power seat track may contain fewer welds than specified between the track recliner bracket and the lower support bracket.  This condition may cause a squeak/rattle condition to develop, and possibly result in a loose seat.  In the rare circumstance that a vehicle having a seat with insufficient multiple welds is in a collision, the seat may not perform as intended potentially increasing the risk of an injury.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the upper support assembly on all power seat track assemblies.
