Default LS Focus (Hatch) Rear Seat Question

Hey All,

We have a little 'problem' with my Mum's rear seats in her LS hatch... we fold them down ok, and the passenger ones will even close up properly, but the driverside half (two thirds) doesn't like to latch properly and requires forcing the seat back into position.

We gave the car to Ford (for other reasons) but asked them to look into it, they came back and said it's a common problem on this model car. In other words, they didn't do jack about it...

Or... is it true?

Can anyone else tell me if their LS Focus Hatch has a similar problem?

Thanks!

Dan

I havent heard of this problem at all, time to ask another Ford dealer.

1 thing to remember though, make sure the seatbelt is not in the way of the latch, or you could fray the belt = new replacement.

I had a front seat problem, Ford fixed it, no questions asked.

I highly recommend Peter Warren Ford in Warwick Farm near Liverpool

Dude.... my rear seats click in perfectly each time i swing them up and down.

I say take it to another Ford dealer and get them to look at the warranty fix.
Like im assuming you'd just need to unbolt the seats and align them up to the latches a little better.
