- Suspension:front:control arm:lower arm
- Manufactured:

- Affected:
- 46,828

- Consequence:
- Severe corrosion could result in perforation and potential fracture of the front lower control arm. if this fracture occurs, the tire and wheel assembly remains connected to the chassis through the forward lower control arm pivot point and through the strut attachment to the upper wheelhouse. reduced control of the front wheel location increases the risk of a crash.
