What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing defect, the rear middle seating position may not have been fitted with a child restraint anchor point as required by Australian Design Rule (ADR) 34/03 - Child Restraint Anchorages and Child Restraint Anchor Fittings. As a result, an infant or child car seat restraint can not be securely installed.

In the event of an accident or hard braking, if the infant or child seat is not securely installed it could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants.
