The risk
The products pose a risk of injuries because it is possible that the screws connecting the front seat rail to the seat frame do not meet the required specifications, which means that the solidity of the screws and the performance of the entire seat/seatbelt system are compromised.
Product: Three-door vehicles built in 2009 within the vehicle identification number range W0L0 SD L08 9 6 121296 to W0L0 SD L08 9 6 131696.
