“Seats:front assembly:power adjust I was told it was performed prior to me going to the dealership after I made the appointment and was told everything would be covered with no charge. The seat for the passenger side seems to fall back randomly and does not comply. I told the dealership I went to it was obviously not done right and they eagerly advised me to try somewhere else.”
NHTSA complaint #10898329, filed 2016-08, 20 miles“I received a letter in the mail in 2015 regarding the adjustable seat for the passenger and driver seats. The recall involved a problem in which the seat was fallen to the lowest position. When I received the letter, I did not have any problems, but in my attempt to be responsible I took my car to the dealership.

The senor and alarm continue to go off and on while driving, turning the air bag off and on throughout the time the passenger is in the seat.”

I called dealer and they would need to diagnose if it is the seat belt or the seat weight sensor. Can cost upwards of $900. I just can't afford that. They should recall since I've researched so many complaints on this issue.”
