Details

What's wrong: The fasteners that connect the exhaust system and the catalytic converter may not have been tightened correctly.

Why it matters: A loose connection between the exhaust system and catalytic converter increases the risk of a fire.

The fix: Dealers will replace the gasket between the exhaust system and the catalytic converter, and tighten the fasteners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 22, 2023.
