Unsafe Condition
A gap between the forward and aft seat track at frame 64 could exceed the tolerance limit due to an assembly line position control method, leading to separation of passenger seats from the seat track under emergency landing conditions.

Required Actions
Inspect the gap of the seat track joints at frame 64 and correct discrepancies. Modify the seat tracks on all affected airplanes to terminate repetitive seat removal or repositioning. The modification involves either Solution 1 (adjusting gap and installing new couplings for gaps 2.8-3.8 mm) or Solution 2 (removing components and installing new parts for gaps over 3.8 mm) per Airbus Service Bulletin A320-53-1088.
