Proper Seat Back Upholstery Installation
AFFECTED VEHICLE RANGE:
Freelander (LN) All 3-door variants
SITUATION:
INCORRECT INSTALLATION OF NEW SEAT BACK COVER
Installation of a replacement seat cover on 3-door front seat backs requires a slit to be made in the side panel for the backrest release lever escutcheon. If
the slit is cut beyond the top and bottom edges of the escutcheon, the installation looks unsightly and gives the impression that the cover is faulty.
RESOLUTION:
FOLLOW PROPER INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
When changing a front seat back cover on 3-door vehicles, the procedures in this TIB must be followed in detail. The cut must be in the correct position
and the correct size for the release lever escutcheon to obtain a proper fit.
