Seats

What is wrong
An out-of-specification condition in the seat cable roller pulley assembly can allow the cable that connects the seat adjust lever to the latch to be pinched in the roller assembly.
Risk
Consequence of non-compliance: this condition can prevent the latch on the left side from fully engaging the seat rail. This does not comply with the requirement of fmvss no. 207, "seating systems."
Remedy
Dealers will replace a component in the third row sliding bench seat latch assembly.
