Recall Service & Dealership Highlights
Address Safety Concerns
NHTSA recall information identifies defects that can affect shifting, braking, airbag deployment, engine operation, and parking security. A failed shifter cable bushing may allow unintended movement or prevent commanded shifts, while a transmission control module failure may cause an unexpected neutral shift and loss of motive power. Brake booster damage may lengthen stopping distance, and an improperly installed side airbag may not deploy as intended. A powertrain issue may cause stalling in cold temperatures, while incorrect rear calipers may leave the parking brake inoperable.
