Check your own vehicle. A recall applies only to vehicles within the affected build range. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. Recall repairs are free at a franchised dealer.

What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles may have been assembled without the retainer clip for the brake pedal push rod. The absence of this retainer clip could allow the brake pedal to disengage from the master cyclinder push rod.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, install the retainer clip on all suspect vehicles without charge.
