Consumer Description

FUSE BOX PROBLEM WITH DESIGN. THE SEAT LATCH DESIGN TOGETHER SHORTS OUT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. THIS GETS HOT, SHORTS OUT AND DAMAGES THE FUEL PUMP AND CAN CAUSE POSSIBLE FIRE. THIS IS A COSTLY DEADLY DESIGN FLAW AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. LUCKY WE FIXED IT IN TIME. I HAVE BABIES THAT SIT IN MY BACK SEAT AND IT'S SCARY TO THINK THAT IT COULD CATCH ON FIRE WITH THEM SITTING THERE.
