Issue:
Under certain testing conditions, the front seat material may not meet the flammability requirements of Canadian regulations. However, when the seat mat is tested in a fully assembled state, with all four layers, it meets all requirements.
Safety Risk:
This is a testing issue that does not affect vehicle safety.
Corrective Actions:
This is not a recall. The company has made changes to ensure that all new vehicles have fully compliant seat-vent mats.
