## What is wrong

On certain vehicles operated in areas of heavy road salt usage \(Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland \& Labrador\), road salt may cause internal corrosion of the rear trailing arms, which could lead to thinning or perforation of the trailing arm steel.  In time, the trailing arms may fracture, which could result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the rear trailing arms.  Should the trailing arms not require replacement, drainage holes will be added, as well as treatment with rust\-proofing material to arrest the corrosion process.
