Rear seat passengers should not lean on
the front seatback while the vehicle is in

forward even a small degree may not lock
properly in the event of a sudden stop or
collision. Do not allow packages or other
objects to interfere with the normal
positions of the seatback or the emergency
seatback release. This may prevent the
seatback from locking in the event of a
sudden stop or collision and could cause
personal injury.
