What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with the tforce accessory package. The fasteners for the aftermarket roof rack may have been improperly tightened.

Why it matters: If the roof rack fasteners loosen, the roof rack may detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Gulf states will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, tighten the roof rack fasteners, free of charge. The recall began June 15, 2017.
