Details

What's wrong: The rear suspension left-side and right-side wheel alignment toe-in tie- rods may fail due to incorrect machining.

Why it matters: A failed tie-rod could lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will replace the affected tie-rods, install a tie-rod kit and perform a wheel alignment, free of charge. The safety recall began on September 9, 2011.
