Recall 1988051

The issue

VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED WITH A FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARM BRACKET THAT COULD DEVELOP METAL CRACKS AND EVENTUALLY RESULT IN DISENGAGEMENT OF THE LOWER CONTROL ARM. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, IT COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: VEHICLES WITH SUSPECT FRAME ASSEMBLY DATE CODES WILL REQUIRE FRAME REPLACEMENT.

Description (français)

Le support du bras de suspension inférieur peut se fissurer. Le bras risque donc de se détacher inopinément; s'il le faisait pendant la conduite, il en résulterait une perte de maîtrise du véhicule et une collision serait probable.
