Hazard
2 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 2 seat locking failure recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 0 (0%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all seat locking failure recalls regardless of agency”, “all listeria recalls in California”, “all airbag recalls in 2025”. The tags are extracted from each recall’s source text during the LLM rewrite step and validated against a fixed schema.
A recall can carry multiple tags — a Listeria recall might also be tagged ready-to-eat and undeclared-allergen. Use the full-text search if you want to combine hazard tags with brand or category filters.
BMW is recalling 2019-2022 X7 models with third-row seats because compression springs may not have been properly installed, causing the seat backrest to potentially fail to lock in a crash.
Chrysler is recalling 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer vehicles because the rear center-seat recliner strap may prevent the seat back from locking into the upright position. This defect increases crash injury risk and violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 207.
