The issue

On certain vehicles, the second row 60% seat (with a manual recliner mechanism) may have components that are out of dimensional specifications and thereby may not comply with the seatback strength requirements of the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 207 - Anchorage of Seats. In the event of a crash, the seatback may not provide the required strength, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the manual recliner mechanism.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le siège (60 %) de la deuxième rangée (à mécanisme d'inclinaison manuel) pourrait comporter des pièces qui ne respectent pas les spécifications concernant les dimensions et, donc, pourrait ne pas se conformer aux exigences de résistance du dossier de la Norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles du Canada 207 – Ancrage des sièges. En cas d'accident, le dossier pourrait ne pas fournir la résistance nécessaire, ce qui augmenterait les risques de blessures pour le passager. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le mécanisme d'inclinaison manuel.
