2014 Holden Commodore and WN Caprice models built between February 7, 013 and May 22, 2014 have once again been recalled, this time for faulty front seats.
The latest recall affects 25,055 Commodore sedans and Caprice models.
According to the recalls.gov.au website: “The vehicles may have been built with an incomplete weld on the seat hook bracket assembly, for either front seat.”
If the weld is incomplete, under certain conditions such as a crash, the hook may separate from the seat track, increasing the risk of occupant injury.
This is the fifth time in three months, and for the third time in July that Holden has had to recall Holden models.
Dealers have been instructed to inspect the welds and, if not correct, the seat base assembly will be replaced free-of-charge.
The latest Holden Commodore recall follows a safety campaign earlier this month because the LPG fuel system may cut out or catch fire.
Last month Holden recalled 27,000 Commodores because the windscreen wipers may not work properly, and in May Holden recalled 42,000 Commodores over a potential fault with the front seatbelts.
GM Holden will contact affected customers of this recall in writing, and request customers present their vehicle to their local dealership to have the seat rail welds inspected.
