Recall 2005143

The issue

On certain vehicles, the rear suspension transverse beam castings were not made to specifications. If a casting were to break when the vehicle is in motion, parts could become projectiles with potential to cause property damage, personal injury or death. Also, the transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface causing sparks that could ignite a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the transverse beams.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les poutres transversales de suspension arrière n'ont pas été coulées selon les spécifications. Si une poutre se rompait lorsque le véhicule est en mouvement, des pièces pourraient devenir des projectiles et endommager des biens matériels ou blesser et même tuer des personnes. De plus, la poutre transversale pourrait s'affaisser suffisamment pour toucher à la route, ce qui provoquerait des étincelles qui pourraient provoquer un incendie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et, s'il y a lieu, remplacer les poutres transversales.
