THE FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER CONTROL ARM SHAFT ATTACHING BOLTS MAY LOOSEN ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES. THE LOOSENED CONDITION OF THE CONTROL ARM CAN RESULT IN INCORRECT FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND A NOTICEABLE INCREASE IN STEERING EFFORT. IF THIS CONDITION IS NOT CORRECTED THE ATTACHING BOLTS MAY FALL OUT OR PULL THROUGH THE FRAME BRACKET. THE UNATTACHED CONTROL ARM SHAFT COULD CHAFE AGAINST THE BRAKE PIPE AND LEAD TO BRAKE PIPE FAILURE.
FixDEALER WILL REPLACE THE FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER CONTROL ARM SHAFT ATTACHMENT ON ALL SUSPECT VEHICLES. IF THE CONTROL ARM HAS DETACHED FROM THE SHOCK TOWER, THE BRAKE PIPE WILL BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF DAMAGED.
