Defect SummaryVehicle description: mini vans equipped with e-z entry seats. the affected vehicles may have a second row right hand side captain chair that has inadequate lubrication of the easy entry and exit latch system. in some cases, the actuator spring in the latch could deform after repeated use, causing the latch to remain in the unlatched position. if this occurs, the seat will slide freely on the seat track and the springs on the track will move the seat to the easy entry position toward the front of the vehicle.
Consequence SummaryAn unlatched seat track could result in an increased risk of injury in the event of a vehicle crash.
Corrective SummaryDealers will replace the seat track for the second row right hand side captain's chair, which includes the easy entry and exit latch mechanism.
