If the training seat fails, it may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, which increases the risk of injury.

Until repairs are completed, owners are advised to limit use of the training seat. The remedy is still being developed. Interim owner notification letters are expected by April 24, 2026, and another notice will follow once the repair is available. The repair will be free at an authorized dealer.
