SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:MASTER CYLINDER

Manufacturer
CARDONE INDUSTRIES, INC.
What Happened
The master cylinder is a key part of your vehicle's braking system. It's responsible for building pressure to make the brakes work. In some cases, the seal on the master cylinder can fail and leak brake fluid.
Risk if Unfixed
If your master cylinder seal fails, brake fluid will leak out, making it harder for your brakes to work properly. This could lead to poor braking performance, which might cause a vehicle crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will notify you when the defective master cylinder is available to be repurchased. If you've already had a replacement installed, you can contact Cardone directly at 1-800-777-4780 to arrange for a repurchase.

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER BALL JOINT

Manufacturer
QUALIS AUTOMOTIVE LLC
What Happened
The lower ball joint in your vehicle is a crucial part that connects the control arm to the steering system. It's possible that the socket of the ball joint was made too hard, which could cause it to crack and break under stress, separating from the control arm.
Risk if Unfixed
If the ball joint fails, the control arm could snap, causing the wheel to fold inward. This could make it hard to steer your vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty ball joint with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible.
