This page lists the models and model years named in NHTSA campaign #01V184000.
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.
This model year has 1 recorded safety recall. Model-level listings do not establish VIN-specific open recalls or whether this vehicle is safe to drive. Check your VIN and contact the manufacturer for recall instructions.
