Issue
On certain vehicles equipped with a dealer-installed trailer hitch, hitch mounting hardware may have been overtightened at time of assembly. This could reduce the strength of the fasteners, potentially causing the trailer hitch to detach from the vehicle while a trailer is being towed. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the mounting hardware and replace as necessary.
