SUSPENSION
Manufacturer
ROCK KRAWLER/PURE PERFORMANCE GROUP, INC
What Happened
The suspension system in your vehicle uses bolts to hold the bottom strut fork in place. Rock Krawler installed the wrong type of bolts, which could lose their grip and cause problems.
Risk if Unfixed
If the bolts fail, the suspension could collapse, causing your vehicle to drop lower than expected. This could make it harder to control your vehicle, especially on uneven terrain, and might lead to a crash.
Free Fix
Rock Krawler will notify you and fix the issue for free. They'll replace the incorrect bolts with the right ones, so you should contact them to schedule the repair as soon as possible.
