## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, parts of the front seat frame and backrest adjuster may not have been properly welded. As a result, the backrest adjustment could break in a rear\-end crash and allow to seat to move.

Safety Risk:

A seatback that fails could cause an increased risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions:

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the driver and passenger front seats. The seatback frames will be replaced, as necessary.
