- Risk
- Loss of rear spring support can increase the potential for a vehicle accident if it occurs while the vehicle is moving.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the vehicle to determine whether the rear shock absorbers are from the suspect production. If the shock absorbers are from the suspect production, the shock absorber/spring seat assemblies will be replaced.
