What This Recall Means

Component

STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS

What Happened
The gas struts on your car's rear door help it stay open and closed. In certain models, the brackets that hold these struts in place might be faulty and could bend or break when it's hot outside.
Risk if Unfixed
If both struts break, the door could slam shut quickly, potentially hitting someone and causing serious injury.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your dealership will replace the faulty brackets with new ones for free. Be sure to schedule the repair when you receive the recall notice and get it done within a reasonable timeframe.
