Details

What's wrong: Incorrect mounting of the hellwig helper spring in conjunction with a change in the style of spring being installed allowed the u bolt securing the helper spring to the OEM spring to come into contact with the rear sway bar.

Why it matters: The sway bar could become nonfunctional and the unit would become more difficult to control.

The fix: Dealers will eliminate the contact between the helper spring u bolt and the sway bar mounting bolt. Dealers will remove, reverse the mounting, and reinstall the hellwig helper spring. Owner notification began September 11, 2001.
