Affected Vehicles

Is YOUR vehicle affected?

This page lists the models and model years named in NHTSA campaign #01V044011. Matching a model and year on this list does not prove an individual vehicle is affected — some vehicles in an affected model year are never part of the recall population. The authoritative way to know is a VIN check against NHTSA's own records.
