On certain vehicles, the rear suspension transverse beam castings were not made to specifications. If a casting were to break when the vehicle is in motion, parts could become projectiles with potential to cause property damage, personal injury or death. Also, the transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface causing sparks that could ignite a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the transverse beams.

On certain vehicles, testing procedures designed to verify that the ABS brakes are wired correctly and that all hardware is operational were not performed properly during vehicle assembly.

Correction: Dealers will perform a complete diagnostic test on the ABS braking system to ensure all components and wiring are functioning as designed.
