Details
What's wrong: Water may enter the rear door switch and cause a short circuit, allowing an unlocked rear door to open unexpectedly.
Why it matters: A door that unexpectedly opens while the vehicle is moving or during a crash increases the risk of injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace both right and left rear door opener switches, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed August 9, 2024.
