NHTSA Complaint #11478086 — 2017 HONDA PILOT

There was a rattle coming from the middle seats, specifically on the passenger side. Upon checking I found out that the middle seats were not locking properly. Actually, they could be folded down using your bare hands rather than the buttons and other mechanism to fold the seats. Therefore, in case of an accident, the seats are not likely to keep latch and may fold on any individual sitting in the middle seats. This is a safety issue that needs to be addressed. Seats are not supposed to fold using your hands but by either pressing a button or using a handle.
