If this occurs, threads may wear, causing the arm to separate which could result in loss of vehicle control. Correction: Dealers will inspect the arms and verify the tightening torque of the lock nuts, or replace the arms, as necessary.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"SSC168","part_number":null,"units":100100,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Superseded","french":{"component":"Suspension","notification":"Remplacé","summary":"Ce rappel a été remplacé par le rappel numéro 2013-327 de Transports Canada.\n\nSur certains véhicules, si les contre-écrous de réglage du pincement des roues arrière étaient mal serrés lors d'un alignement sur le terrain, un jeu pourrait se créer dans la partie filetée du bras de suspension (arbre et tendeur à vis), suivi par la formation de corrosion.
