Passenger car

Requirements breached

There is a fault affecting the adjustment mechanism (recliner) of the front seat backrests. It is possible that the teeth of the mechanism may not be fully engaged and therefore seat backrest retention could be impaired, resulting in the seat folding in the event of severe rear impact, thus reducing the protection of the occupant.
