Second Row Seating


Taurus and Sable

These seats have a 60/40 split backrest. The 60 percent has a fold-down armrest. Each backrest is held in place at the top with its own striker attached to the package tray sheet metal and a latch attached to each backrest frame.


Taurus X

There are 3 seating options for the second row: a 60/40 or a 40/40 and a power-fold 40/40. All seats will fold forward to ease entry to the third row of seating (E-Z entry). All backrests will recline and fold flat. The manual 40/40 seats have an optional adjustable seat track in place of the stationary riser. The power-fold 40/40 seats are equipped with optional heated seat systems.


Power-fold Seats

The optional power-fold Taurus X seats have convenient power-fold seat control switches mounted in each rear quarter trim panel beside the seat backrest. When the power-fold seat control switch is depressed and held for a moment, an electro-mechanical motor releases the seat recliners and latch feet through a cable attachment. An assist spring in the backrest recliner folds the backrest to the fold-flat position and a spring assist strut folds the seat to the E-Z entry position. The seat must be manually returned to the seating position.


Rear Heated Seats

This system allows independent seat electrical heating of each rear power-fold seat on demand.

The components of the system are:

- the seat heater mats, located on the seat cushion and backrest.
- the heated seat module, located underneath the front floor console.
- the heated seat switches, located on the floor console rear panel.
- temperature sensors, located in the seat cushion heater mats.

A new heater mat will come assembled on a new foam pad.
