Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Address Safety Concerns

NHTSA identifies two recall concerns associated with this truck: a steering stabilizer kit whose foam ring may block piston ports, potentially causing steering to lock, and tires that may have inner-sidewall damage, potentially leading to rapid air loss or a rupture. Either condition can increase the risk of losing control or crashing. Waiting to check your VIN leaves uncertainty in place, even if the truck feels normal on the road. A prompt inspection can determine whether the steering remedy or tire inspection and replacement applies, helping you address a safety concern before it becomes an emergency.
