Details

What's wrong: One of three styrofoam pads located in each rear door as part of the design for ensuring compliance with fmvss no. 214, "side door strength," was not installed.

Why it matters: In the event of a vehicle crash, an occupant would not be properly protected increasing the risk of personal injury.

The fix: Dealers will install the missing pad in each rear door.
