Chronology :
on Aug 17, 2022 during a final vehicle audit, it was noticed that the passenger seat mounting bolts did not have green marks indicating that the bolts had been torqued to the required specification.
Aug 17 to 19 – All vehicles in production and in inventory were checked to determine if there were any others that were missing torque marks. Several others were found and any found were re-torqued and marked.
Aug 22 to 26 – Quality investigated all of the QARs and inspection audits of vehicles produced to determine if there were any vehicles that had been shipped that might not have had the bolts marked confirming that they had been torqued to specifications. This investigation lasted 7 days and identified 36 vehicles that did not have a visual picture in the QAR confirming that the front seat mounting bolts had been marked as having been torqued and were therefore suspect.
