Corrosion may proceed to the point where the lower plate becomes perforated and the front lower control arm fractures between its forward and rearward pivot attachments to the chassis.  If the front lower control arm fractures, the wheel assembly may be allowed to move rearward in the wheel well opening during braking.  Reduced control of the front wheel location may increase the risk of a vehicle crash.  Correction:  Dealer will replace the front lower control arm.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"R36","part_number":null,"units":24211,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety TC","french":{"component":"Suspension","notification":"Sécurité - TC","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, le sel utilisé l'hiver pour déglacer les routes peut faire corroder la plaque inférieure ou le bras oscillant inférieur avant, à tel point que la plaque inférieure peut se perforer et le bras oscillant inférieur avant peut se briser entre les pivots d'attache avant et arrière au châssis.
