Details

What's wrong: The driveshaft may not be attached to the intermediate bearing correctly, causing excessive wear to the driveshaft joint and excessive vibrations.

Why it matters: Damage to the driveshaft joint could result in a loss of drive, increasing the risk of a crash. Excessive vibrations may cause the frontal air bags to deploy unexpectedly, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dvusa will notify owners and dealers will inspect the drive shaft, replacing it as necessary, free of charge. This recall began August 11, 2020.
