5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies seat belt retractors that may not properly secure occupants, glass roof hatches that may shatter, foldaway seat cushions that may not stay locked, and a universal joint that may allow a front driveshaft to detach. The possible consequences include occupant injury, falling glass, loss of drive power, and a road hazard for following traffic. Because these defects can affect crash protection or vehicle control, waiting to confirm recall status can add unnecessary risk.
