What the authority reported
Due to a production error, the connector inner sleeve of the recalled control arms, when fitted, may leave a gap which could permit further compression of the component during tightening. This can lead to stress in the subframe and cause cracking. A crack or microcrack in the subframe can result in damage to the front axle beam, which can impair driving and increase the risk of an accident and injury.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
