Certain four wheel drive vehicles may experience increased stopping distances during ABS stops while in the two-wheel drive mode. A switch can erroneously signal the ABS system that the vehicle is in four-wheel drive when the vehicle is actually in two wheel drive. Correction: Dealers will replace the switch on affected vehicles.
On certain vehicles, the driver's and/or passenger's front outboard seat-belt webbing could separate during a frontal impact having at least the same dynamics as a 48 kph frontal barrier collision. If a separation occurred and there were secondary crash events or rollover, there would be no restraint of the occupant and increased injuries could occur. Correction: A protector cover will be installed over the recliner mechanism.
CERTAIN VEHICLES MAY NOT COMPLY WITH C.M.V.S.S. 301 - FUEL SYSTEM INTEGRITY. IN CERTAIN TYPES OF VEHICLE CRASHES, THE PROPSHAFT MAY PENETRATE THE FUEL TANK, RESULTING IN A FUEL LEAK. IF AN IGNITION SOURCE WERE PRESENT, A VEHICLE FIRE COULD RESULT. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSTALL ADDITIONAL SHIELDING FOR THE FUEL TANK.
CERTAIN 4WD VEHICLES COULD HAVE EITHER OR BOTH UPPER BALL JOINTS UNDERTORQUED. THIS CAN RESULT IN IMPROPER SEATING OF THE TAPERED BALL JOINT STUD IN THE TAPERED HOLE OF THE STEERING KNUCKLE. IN THIS CONDITION, THE STUD CAN LOOSEN, EVENTUALLY FATIGUE AND FRACTURE. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL TORQUE THE UPPER BALL JOINT NUT ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE TO THE REQUIRED SPECIFICATION.
