Product
Vehicles: RENAULT MODUS. Units affected: 76
Reason
It has been identified that the possibility exists that the front seat head restraint components may have been incorrectly welded into position in the seat frame. This in certain cases can cause the sleeve to become loose to the seat frame. This has the potential to prevent the front seat head restraints retaining their position in the event of an impact. Remedy: Recalled vehicles will have the fabrication of the two front seat back frames checked. These will be replaced if found to be necessary.
