Safety timeline
Full timeline- Recall
A broken driveshaft can result in a loss of drive power, or a vehicle roll away when the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied. Both scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
- Recall
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator may crack and release the gas needed to properly deploy the air bag, increasing the risk of injury.
- Recall
An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.
- Recall
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
