Owners can tell if their car is affected by seeing if their second-row seat back frame folds improperly or if it's loose and rattles when driving.
Tesla found five warranty claims regarding the bolts since last December, but is not aware of any injuries or deaths due to it.
Tesla will inspect the bolts and tighten them if necessary for free of charge, and owner notification letters will be mailed.
