What's wrong: The affected vehicles have front lower control arm fasteners that May fail due to an assembly error, possibly resulting in separation of the steering knuckle.
Why it matters: If the fasteners were to fail causing the knuckle to separate, vehicle handling May be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.
