Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Left rear passenger seat back(2/3rds bench) will not release. The result of this is loss of ability to exit the vehicle from 3rd row seating. Can only exit from the smaller 1/3rd bench seat on the right side. I consider this a safety issue because of reduced ability to exit the vehicle or to be rescued from 3rd row seating area.”
