Had our cables get caught even after the tiny clip addition. Clip fell off. This is an easy fix with some wiring protector tube and a few well place wire ties. Just keep the harnesses free to travel front to back and stay on the upper seat frame assy. As long as they stay above the swivel mechanism. I have a copy of the recall and photos showing the fix. I believe most on this forum can create a more stylish fix that suggested. If your wires get broken, as ours did once, that is different! Had that repaired under warranty on day 4 of ownership. :)
