Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

NHTSA recall information identifies risks that should not be postponed. A fuel pump control module power interruption may cause the engine to stall and increase crash risk. Air bag concerns may involve an inflator that can explode and send metal fragments toward occupants, or a control unit that can deactivate air bags or trigger unintended deployment. Incorrect head restraints may provide inadequate protection in a crash. Rear child locks may disengage, allowing a child to open a door. Regulatory compliance modifications may also increase the risk of crash, fire, or injury. Prompt VIN verification helps determine whether your vehicle needs action.
