NHTSA recall 96V020000
Suspension · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: The rear lower control arm can crack at the rear stabilizer bar attachment.
Why it matters: This condition can be aggravated by the severe duty cycle of these vehicles and eventually cause the lower control arm to fracture completely causing a loss of vehicle control without prior warning.
The fix: Dealers will replace both rear lower control arms and rear stabilizer bar attachments.
