On certain vehicles, as a result of improper welding of the seat rail assemblies, one side of the seat may not fully lock into the set position. Under extreme acceleration or deceleration conditions, this could cause a rocking motion of the seat. If the seat started a rocking motion while the customer was driving, it could pose a safety risk to the driver as well as other vehicles and could result in damage to the vehicle or property, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the entire seat rail assemblies on both seats.
