Reported risk: Certain extended cab pickup trucks equipped with high-back bucket seats may have the seat recliner to seat frame attaching bolts loosen, fatigue and fracture, allowing the seat back to suddenly recline. If this were to occur on the driver's seat while the vehicle was in motion, it could lead to sudden loss of vehicle control and a crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealers will remove all foam and/or fabric sandwiched between the recliner assembly and the seat frame, install washers between the seat recliner and the seat frame at each attachment point, and install new attaching bolts torqued to a higher specification.
