What is wrong

During a government 65 km/h 40% offset frontal barrier test, the driver's seat belt may have interfered with the manual front seat back recliner knob, inadvertently releasing the seat back recliner mechanism. The release of a seat back recliner during a vehicle crash could result in injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace the front seat back recliner knob with an revised part. Note: The revised part was placed into vehicle production on July 28, 2005 on four cylinder engine equipped models and on August 16, 2005 on six cylinder models.
