5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies four safety concerns for this vehicle. A brake caliper piston may reduce braking performance and increase crash risk. Silicate buildup at shift-lever microswitch contacts may allow the key to be removed outside Park, creating a possible unintended rollaway. Rear coil springs may prematurely fracture, potentially damaging a rear tire and causing loss of vehicle control. Waiting can leave these risks unresolved, especially when symptoms are not obvious. If the brake system may be affected, owners are advised not to drive until it has been checked. Contact our service team promptly for a VIN review and recall inspection.
