Issue

On certain vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions, the driver's side driveshaft could separate from the CV joint due to an improperly seated snap ring. This could result in a loss of vehicle propulsion, or allow the vehicle to roll away despite being set in the PARK position. Loss of vehicle propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Also, the vehicle rolling away could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the driveshaft and replace if necessary.
