Details

What's wrong: These vehicles were built with axles rated at 3,800 lbs. The vehicles should have been built with axles rated at 4,400 lbs.

Why it matters: Towing a vehicle with the axle loaded beyond the specified weight rating may result in axle failure leading to poor vehicle handling increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will replace the axles with one's rated at 4,400 lbs free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2010.
