Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles may be equipped with accessory exhaust tips installed by set or set dealers that may contact people and possibly burn them while they are standing behind the vehicle.

Why it matters: Contact with an exhaust tip may result in personal injury.

The fix: Set will notify owners, and dealers will install a re-designed exhaust tip that is smaller in diameter and is more recessed behind the bumper, free of charge. The recall began on September 22, 2015.
