Correct Seat Torque of Mach-e

[Maz1988]

So my mom dropped her necklace under the seat, and now we gotta pop out the main seat bolt to get it. But here’s the thing - I’m kinda worried about getting the torque right when putting it back.

Anyone ever done this before or know what the proper torque is?
I’m not about to just wing it and hand-tighten it, don’t want to mess with safety!

I would ask the dealership to do it.

Yeah, that’s an option, but honestly, I’d rather skip the hassle and the cost if I can handle it myself. I’ve already got the tools, and I’m halfway through anyway! Just need the torque specs so I don’t mess it up.

@Maz1988 Were you able to get retrieve your mom’s necklace?

Ford probably tells you to replace those bolts when you put the seat back in, just to be safe. I wouldn't worry about it too much, but I'd definitely want to use some threadlocker on them before I put them back in. They probably already have some on there, so make sure to clean them off and put some new threadlocker on.

@Maz1988 Any news on your mom's necklace? Were you able to fix your car seat? We'd love an update.

In my 2021 Mach-E, the front seat is secured with T55P (Torx Plus) bolts at the front and T50P bolts at the rear. I noticed that neither of these bolts had any thread locker applied to them, which seemed a bit unusual
