What is being recalled

THE FRONT SEAT UPPER HINGE COVER SCREWS ARE TOO LONG, AND INTERFERE WITH THE SEAT BACK INERTIA LOCK. THIS PREVENTS THE SEAT BACK FROM LOCKING PROPERLY.

Why it is dangerous

IN THE EVENT OF A SUDDEN STOP OR VEHICLE IMPACT, ANUNLOCKED SEAT BACK WOULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE SEAT OCCUPANT.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

REPLACE SCREWS SECURING UPPER HINGE TRIM COVER WITH CORRECT LENGTH SCREWS.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 91V-074 when calling a dealer.
