What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

The risk

CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: THIS CONDITION CAN CAUSE INABILITY TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS IN A CRASH SITUATION, AND RESULT IN VEHICLE DAMAGE AND INCREASED RISK OF INJURY.

The remedy

DEALERS WILL STAMP THE STEERING WHEEL WITH AN ELECTRICALLY HEATED TOOL ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT SPOKE OF THE STEERING WHEEL.

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.
