THE FRONT PASSENGER SEATS MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH INCORRECT INBOARD OR OUTBOARD SEAT TRACKS. IN THIS EVENT THE SEAT WOULD NOT BE LATCHED WHEN IN THE REARMOST POSITION, PERMITTING UNRESTRICTED FORWARD MOVEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF A FRONTAL COLLISION, RISK OF INJURY TO THE FRONT SEAT OCCUPANTS WOULD BE INCREASED. CORRECTION: SEAT TRACKS WILL BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF NECESSARY.
