Details

What's wrong: The drain bolt for the transmission oil can come loose during operation allowing oil to flow out from the drain hole onto the pavement.

Why it matters: This could cause the rear tire to slip, which could lead to a crash and result in personal injury or death.

The fix: Dealers will tighten the drain bolt.
