Recalls

2 vehicle recalls from the manufacturer. Repairs are free. Check your VIN to see if one is still open on your car.

Backup camera Vehicle recall #25V282000 · 2025 · 413,151 vehicles

What's wrong: The rearview camera image May not display when the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "rear visibility."

Why it matters: A rearview camera image that does not display reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: The software will be updated by a dealer or through an over-the-air (ota) update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 27, 2025.
