Recalled: October 12, 1979 ~413 units affected 77V217

Description

THE INVOLVED VEHICLES ARE IN NON-COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 207, "ANCHORAGE OF SEATS", DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY FOR THE FRONT SEATS TO SEPARATE FROM THE SEAT ADJUSTER TRACKS. THE SEPARATION MAY OCCUR BECAUSE THE NUTS ON THE SEAT FRAME CAN BE PULLED TOTALLY OR PARTIALLY THROUGH THE SEAT FRAME SINCE THE SPACERS USED BETWEEN THE ADJUSTER AND THE SEAT FRAMES DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT OF THE NUT MOUNTING SURFACES.
