Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups. - Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\) - Campaign number: 2018161 - Reported: 2018\-04\-04 - Component: Seats And Restraints - Notification type: Superseded - Units potentially affected: 710 ## What is wrong On certain vehicles, the seatbacks of the front seats may not fully lock on the right\-hand side of the respective seat.
