Third row seats may be insecure

Defect, as DVSA words it

The front guide hook of the third row seat may not be fitted correctly. If ignored the restraint function of the third row seat may be affected.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Inspect both third row seat hook mountings and if necessary remove seat and reinstall the hook in the correct position.
