Service bulletin MSG95C44
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

FORCES GREATER THAN APPROXIMATELY 250 POUNDS COULD CAUSE THE END CAP TO DETACH FROM THE RUNNING BOARD AND THE VEHICLE.
