Overview

|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | June 15, 2004 |

| Component | Wheel |
| Production period | September 28, 1998 — April 27, 2004 |
| Vehicles affected | 1,650 units |
Defect
Dealer-option wheel caps were manufactured with an improper profile, causing them to protrude beyond the vehicle body. As a result, the wheel caps do not comply with Safety Standards.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the complete wheel cap set with corrected parts. Because supply of the corrected parts requires time, as an interim measure the complete wheel cap set will be removed, and the corrected parts will be installed at a later date.
