ISSUE

For 2004-2007 Freestar or Monterey vehicles Safety Recall 13S01 has been issued for vehicles that are operated in high corrosion areas for an extended period, where the sheet metal that supports the folding 3rd row seat latch strikers could experience corrosion and may compromise the mounting point for the forward portion of the 3rd row seat. Initially, this condition may result in seat movement when passengers sit on or put weight on the seat, or difficulty latching the front of the seat when in its seating position. If corrosion is severe, the seat latch strikers may become detached from the vehicle. The seat belts and the permanent mounting attachment at the rear of the seat are unaffected.

 

ACTION

Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

  1. For 2004-2007 Freestar or Monterey vehicles that are not covered under Safety Recall 13S01 but exhibit corrosion on the sheet metal that supports the 3rd row seat latch strikers, dealers can submit a Non-Involved Vehicle type contact to the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) from the PTS website to request recall service action. Dealers should provide pictures of the VIN, Odometer and a picture of the rear wheel well area showing the rust damage. Dealers located in U.S. Federalized Territories (America Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands) must contact expcso@ford.com to request recall service action.
  1. If approved, follow Safety Recall 13S01. Dealers are to install new 3rd row seat latch striker mounting brackets which will relocate the seat latch strikers away from the potentially corroded area. In addition, dealers are to install overlay panels in the exterior of the wheel wells to prevent the entry of water and corrosive elements.
