What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles may have been assembled with improperly manufactured front spring u-bolts used to secure the front axle assembly to the spring. The four u-bolts may experience cracks and could ultimately break. Should two u-bolts on the same side of the vehicle break, the front axle would not be retained securely.

Remedy

All suspect u-bolts will be replaced by the dealer, free of charge.
