Certain vehicles may have a condition in which a crack is present in the right-hand lower B-Pillar body inner panel. If this crack propagates and widens, it could destabilize the B-pillar structure and increase the potential risk to door check link rigidity and corrosion. Dealers are to inspect the B-Pillar body inner panel (pass/fail); If any evidence of cracks is found during the inspection process, you must quarantine the vehicle and follow instructions provided in step 4 of the service procedure.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10178410-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10178410-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10178410","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"BUICK","model":"ENCORE","year_from":2020,"year_to":2020,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2020_buick_encore"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
