Consumer Description

LATCH ON THE DRIVER-SIDE, REAR FOLDING SEAT WON'T ENGAGE. I FOLDED THE SEAT-BACK FORWARD TO CREATE MORE CARGO ROOM. AFTERWARD, WHEN I FOLDED IT UPRIGHT THE LATCH THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LOCK IT IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION WOULD NOT ENGAGE. I TRIED MANY TIMES TO HAVE IT LATCH AND LOCK, BUT IT WOULD NOT DO SO AND IT JUST FLOPPED FORWARD. I WENT ON-LINE AND FOUND THAT OTHER CX-5 OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE FOR PERSONS RIDING IN THE REAR SEAT.
