Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the front axle was not properly heated treated, it may fracture and a loss of vehicle control may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
