- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2017222
- Manufacturer's number: 17168

- Component: Suspension
- Notification type: Safety Mfr
- Units potentially affected: 393

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the rear\-suspension toe\-links may have been installed incorrectly \(i.e., in the reverse direction\). If a toe\-link is installed in this incorrect direction, the bolt at the outboard attachment could come loose and fall out over time, which could cause the toe\-link to disconnect from the rear\-suspension system. If a rear\-suspension toe\-link becomes disconnected, the driver may lose the ability to control the vehicle, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and reorient the toe\-links as required.
