On certain vehicles, the front seat back recliner gear teeth may wear excessively through repeated use, and cause the seat to slip partially rearward when force is applied. If this happens while the vehicle is being driven, it could cause a loss of control and a crash. This is an expansion of recall # 99-040. Correction: Both front seat back recliner mechanisms will be replaced.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2002220.
