Official summary
A customer may report a condition where, after adjusting the seat slide position (forward or rearward), one of the seat rails does not lock into position when the adjuster bar is released. An unlocked inner or outer seat rail allows for excessive motion in the seat cushion, usually noticed when the occupant redistributes their body weight while sitting in the seat. This condition may be due to unsynchronized lock position timing between the inner and outer rail.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
