What NHTSA recorded

Some of the involved vehicles may have an insufficient weld fillet size on the rear axle suspension perches which may create a condition whereby the perches could break off.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect and reweld those axle perches with insufficient welds, so that weld material extends completely to the edge of the perch. This will be done at no cost to owner.
