Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the front shock absorber forks may crack. This may allow the shock absorber to come loose and cause the tire to contact the wheel housing. This could affect steering control.

Safety Risk:
If the steering system does not work properly, there could be an increased risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the affected shock absorber fork(s) replaced.
