| 2023053 | 2023-02-10. Airbag. Issue: On certain vehicles, the plastic emblem on the steering wheel airbag cover could detach and become a projectile when the airbag inflates in a crash. Note: This recall is for certain vehicles that had the steering wheel airbag replaced. Safety Risk: Projectiles in the occupant compartment could increase the risk of an injury.

| 2014039 | 2014-02-12. Electrical. On certain vehicles, a circuit breaker was installed incorrectly during vehicle assembly, and could cause damage to the wiring harness, potentially disabling power seat and sunroof functions, discharging the battery and/or causing a short. A short circuit may cause an overheat condition which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and affect repairs as necessary. |
| 2012310 | 2012-09-19. Steering. On certain 2wd vehicles, the front hubs may have been manufactured incorrectly and could crack. This could allow the wheel to wobble, causing a noticeable vibration and, as a result, the driver may experience difficulty controlling the direction of the vehicle. Ultimately, the hub may break, allowing the wheel to separate from the vehicle. The errant wheel assembly could strike a vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace both front wheel hub assemblies. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
