Recall summary
A crankshaft is a rotating part inside the engine that transfers power from the pistons to the transmission. In the affected vehicles, the crankshaft’s bearings – whose job is to reduce friction and ensure smooth rotation – could fail due to a manufacturing flaw, causing the engine to stall.
Recall risks
A stalled vehicle may get hit by other motorists, augmenting the risk of injury for everyone involved.
