“The bolts that hold the front end frame on keep coming loose and I only know this when I start feeling and hearing a rattling sound while driving. I have had them tighten once but it is happening again. I wanted to know if there is a recall on this so that they do not come loose. I do not want to have an accident when something comes loose.”
