Recall 1992080

The issue

THE STEERING WHEEL CENTRE HUB MAY FRACTURE DURING CERTAIN TYPES OF FRONTAL AND NEAR FRONTAL VEHICLE CRASHES. THIS WOULD REDUCE THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE TO POSSIBLY AVOID ANY SECOND COLLISION AND COULD REDUCE THE CRASH PROTECTION OF THE STEERING SYSTEM AND DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REINFORCEMENT PLATE TO THE STEERING WHEEL HUB.
