Details

On some vehicles, if the rear wheel alignment toe adjustment locking nuts are improperly tightened when an alignment is performed in the field, backlash may develop in the threaded portion of the suspension arm (shaft and turnbuckle), followed by the formation of rust.

If this occurs, threads may wear, causing the arm to separate which could result in loss of vehicle control.

Correction: To be determined.

Note: This recall supersedes recall 2012253.

Vehicles that were repaired under the previous campaign will also need to be repaired under this campaign.
