Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: During harder braking in a kia sedona van, the second row seat flipped forward and clobbered the driver's (mine) head. i was so startled that i had no control of the vehicle for a few seconds. nothing was hit. this was because the second row seats flip forward to allow rear entry but they do not necessarily re-latch when putting them upright again, either from a lack of re-latching force or debris/carpet interference with the latch. *jb
