NHTSA complaint #11405973, filed 2021-04, 56,000 miles“I was cleaning the inside out and noticed a hole in the passenger side seat in the bottom area and the leather was thin where it was torn and I went to my dealer and they said it would take most of the day to take it off to see if it was torn or a puncture so I just wanted to add my truck to this list for defects.”
NHTSA complaint #10700605, filed 2015-03, 10,000 miles“Driver seat is not anchored securely. It moves at times such as when turning. Some models of this same year truck is on the recall list for this same problem, but I was told mine is not included. It looks like maybe more of the 2014's needs to be recalled, I know this one does.”
NHTSA complaint #11020322, filed 2017-08, 30,000 miles“While driving in 4wd 'auto', off pavement in waterfront area, I did not think 4wd was engaging. When I shifted to 4h, the seat immediately clam shelled in and down on me. I reset seat, and noticed mirrors also had moved. A few minutes latter I tried the same maneuver while moving <5 MPH, with the same results. I drove the 20+ miles back home in 4auto, but ready for a surprise shift into 4wd, with the accompanying, dangerous seat position change. It occurred 1 more time, while driving slowly approaching my driveway. …”
NHTSA complaint #10694307, filed 2015-03, 1,400 miles“I was involved in a hit and run accident (I was stationary at the time at a dry, mutli-turn lane light) nov 15, 2016. After collision repairs to the visible damage to the vehicle, I found that the driver's side seat would not recline. Dealership worked on it and claimed to have fixed it. After the first attempt, it reclined but would not lock into place on the right side. Returned to dealership and required metal seat back frame replacement to fix the failure. Dealership couldn't or wouldn't identify this as a problem that resulted from the accident. …”
