On certain vehicles, the front and rear suspension upper and lower ball joint nuts may have been incorrectly torqued during vehicle assembly. This could allow the nuts to loosen, which may result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will verify tightening torque of the ball joint nuts and, if necessary, replace the suspension arms, ball joints and hub carriers.
Airbag

Certain vehicles have a non-functioning button with the words "passenger airbag off" etched into it. This button is located, along with an LED light, on a console adjacent to the sunroof. This non-functioning button does not deactivate the passenger side airbag, nor is the LED light an indication that the passenger side airbag has been deactivated. The button is non-functional and cannot be depressed when pushed. Correction: Dealers will replace the console with one which does not contain the non-functioning button and LED light.
