What Happened
The suspension system in your vehicle has a critical component called carriage bolts that keep the bottom strut fork in place. Unfortunately, the ones used in your system are weaker than they should be.
Risk if Unfixed
If these carriage bolts fail, your suspension could lose its lift and drop unexpectedly, which could make you lose control of your vehicle and increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Rock Krawler will contact you and provide a free repair to replace the weak carriage bolts with the correct ones. You'll be notified when the repair is available, and it will be done at no cost to you.
