## What is wrong

Certain vehicles may have been built with defective front seat head rest guide sleeves. This could result in the head rest\(s\) not locking properly which, in the event of a crash, could cause a head rest to come loose and increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace the head rest guide sleeves on both front seats.
