A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will remove the secondary heat exchanger loop, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 24, 2026. Owners may contact Storyteller customer service at 1-888-999-7442.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
