What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the rear spoiler may not have been properly attached during assembly. This could allow the rear spoiler to detach from the vehicle while moving and become a hazard for other road users, which could increase the risk of injury and/or damage property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rear spoiler for any missing fasteners and install new ones as necessary.
