What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the driver’s seat frame may not have been properly welded during the manufacturing process, reducing the strength of the seat back. In the event of a rear-impact crash, the seat back may fail, creating an increased risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver’s seat back.
