Details

What's wrong: The inner tie rod nuts are loose and can result in separation of a tie rod.

Why it matters: Separation of a tie rod can cause unexpected steering input increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will check and adjust the vehicle toe-in and tighten the inner tie rod nuts to the specified torque.
