Hazard

Some front power-adjustable seat slide mechanisms were shipped without the front stop component installed, causing the seat's fixed position to be set further forward than designed. In this condition, if the vehicle experiences a frontal collision, occupants may be at risk of injury.

Remedy

Inspect all vehicles to verify that the front stop component is installed on the front power-adjustable seat slide mechanism. Install the front stop component on any vehicles found to be missing it.
