Recall 2016256

The issue

On certain vehicles, the front strut mount bearing components may be damaged when a high load is applied to the strut, such as when the vehicle is driven over a large bump. If the vehicle is operated with a damaged bearing, it could cause the upper strut rod assembly to separate, resulting in a loss of vehicle stability which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the strut mounting bearing with improved ones. If damage is found on the bearing, dealers will also replace the strut and front suspension support sub-assembly.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les roulements du support de jambe de force avant pourraient être endommagés lorsqu’une charge importante est exercée sur la jambe de force (véhicules roulant sur de grosses bosses, etc.). Si des véhicules circulent alors que les roulements sont endommagés, la partie supérieure de la jambe de force pourrait se séparer, rendre le véhicule instable et accroître les risques de collision causant des blessures et/ou des dommages matériels. Correction : les détaillants doivent remplacer les roulements par des pièces améliorées. Si des roulements endommagés sont décelés par des détaillants, ces derniers doivent également remplacer la jambe de force et le sous-ensemble de support de suspension avant.
