Ford front seat frames may have been improperly welded, resulting in the seat back being improperly secured.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.
The front seat frames may have been improperly welded, resulting in the seat back being improperly secured. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, "Seating Systems," and 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
A loose seat back can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will replace the front seat assemblies, free of charge.
