The problem
Mobility Ventures LLC (Mobility Ventures) is recalling certain 2011-2016 MV-1 vehicles. During a hard rear impact, the driver's seat-height adjustment assembly may disengage from the seat track and the fore/aft seat adjuster may be released, potentially causing the seat to disengage from the seat track.
