Summary |
ON CERTAIN
MINIVANS, THE
OUTBOARD RELEASE
HANDLE ON THE
IMPACT-SIDE
SECOND-ROW
BUCKET SEAT MAY
BE ACTUATED AND
THE REAR LATCHES
MAY UNLATCH
EARLY IN A SIDE
IMPACT CRASH.
THIS WAS
DISCOVERED IN A
SIDE IMPACT TEST
RUN BY GM, UNDER
CONDITIONS
SIMILAR TO
NHTSA'S NEW CAR
ASSESSMENT
PROGRAM (NCAP)
SIDE IMPACT
TEST. |
|
Consequence |
IF THE REAR
LATCHES OF THE
SEAT RELEASE
EARLY IN A
SEVERE SIDE
IMPACT, THE
FRONT OUTBOARD
LATCH MAY
DISENGAGE AND
INCREASE THE
POTENTIAL FOR
INJURY TO THE
OCCUPANT OF THE
SEAT. |
|
Remedy |
DEALERS WILL
REMOVE THE SEAT
LATCH RELEASE
HANDLE AND
INSTALL A BLACK
PLASTIC CAP OVER
THE EXPOSED
METAL STUD TO
ELIMINATE THE
SIDE IMPACT
SAFETY CONCERN.
