Certain vehicles have French language air bag warning labels that may not remain permanently affixed to the sun visor. This fails to comply with C.M.V.S.S. 208 (27). If the label becomes detached and lost French speaking occupants may not receive adequate warning relative to the air bags.

On certain vehicles, a damaged recliner handle spring could result in the loss of handle tension that in turn could result in an insufficient force to engage or retain the locking pawl of the recliner during normal use. Both the driver and front occupant seat backs could unexpectedly recline while the car is being driven and result in possible loss of driver control.
