Label

Powertrain

2013-05-08 · campaign 2013-155

On certain vehicles equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, the transfer case controller could fail. This could cause the transfer case to shift into or through the neutral position, which may allow the vehicle to roll away, even with the transmission in the PARK position. Should the vehicle roll away, it could strike another vehicle, stationary object, or a bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the final drive controller with updated software.

Other

2010-05-10 · campaign 2010-151

Certain vehicles equipped with automatic transmission may have been built with a Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) module exhibiting a binding condition of the solenoid latch. This may result in a condition where the Ignition key can be removed from the WIN module prior to placing the shifter in PARK. This could result in unintended vehicle movement, which may cause property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the WIN module.

Suspension

2010-03-09 · campaign 2010-070 · 216 vehicles

Brakes

2010-01-19 · campaign 2010-009

On certain vehicles, the brake booster input rod may have been installed without the retaining clip, or in some cases, with an improperly formed retaining clip.

Correction: Dealers will install or replace the retaining clips.

Airbag

2009-12-03 · campaign 2009-344 · 317 vehicles
