What is wrong
Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 207 - Anchorage of Seats. The third row seat may move forward if subject to high loading, such as in a frontal collision. As a result, it may not adequately restrain an occupant and would increase the risk of injury, and cause it to not conform to the standard. Correction: Dealers will install an additional support bracket.
