What This Recall Means

Component

STEERING:LINKAGES

What Happened
Your vehicle has a problem with the ball stud nut and washer assemblies in the steering linkages, which were made with the wrong material. This could cause them to break or come loose, affecting your vehicle's steering.
Risk if Unfixed
If the control arm separates from the steering knuckle, it could cause your vehicle to drop, drag on the ground, and potentially lose its brakes, leading to a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Cadillac and Chevrolet will inspect and repair your vehicle's steering linkages for free. If necessary, they will replace the ball stud, knuckle, and nut, or just the nut and washer assembly, to ensure your vehicle's steering works properly.
