TECHNICAL

Subject:
Metal Spring Protruding from Driver and/or Passenger Front Seat Frame (Install Seat Spring Covers)

Models:

Condition

Some customers may comment on a spring protruding from behind the driver and/or passenger seat frame.

Cause

The springs are part of the outboard seat recliner mechanisms and may vary in lengths because different sources were used in production. The varying spring dimensions will not effect performance of the recliner mechanisms and should not be modified.

Correction

Install spring covers over the ends of the springs behind the driver and passenger seat frame assemblies.
