Details

What's wrong: Components within the door latch may prevent the rear doors from latching or opening properly.

Why it matters: The rear door may appear closed even when the latch is not fully engaged, allowing the door to open while driving and increasing the risk of injury or a crash. Damaged latch components may prevent the rear door from being opened while inside the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will replace the rear door latches, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 9, 2021.
