Defect
If the vehicle has a faulty rear seat latch and the rear seat belts are not fastened and the vehicle is involved in a collision, this could cause the rear seats to unlatch and unintentionally fold forward. Where a child restraint is fitted using the isofix anchors and not the seatbelt, the child restraint could be impacted by the folding seat.
