5 common questions answered
The six NHTSA-reported recalls involve communication software, front suspension, axle shaft, seat belt, and diesel engine concerns. A software fault may send an inaccurate emergency-call location, delaying responders. Suspension or diesel-engine oil leaks can create fire risks, while leaked oil may become a road hazard. Incorrect axle bolts may fracture and reduce vehicle stability, increasing crash risk. A rear seat belt anchor bolt may fail to secure a passenger properly in a crash. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved, so check your VIN and schedule an appointment promptly. Recall remedies are performed at no charge when applicable.
