    Reported Problems

    6 Total Safety Recalls Found

    VISIBILITY/WIPER

    • Total cars affected: 423456

    • NHTSA campaign: 15V577000

    • Date of the problem: 18/09/2015

    Over time, the dripping water may cause corrosion and wear at the joint, potentially resulting in the separation of the wiper linkage. Once this occurs, the wipers would not function, reducing driver visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.

    SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER

    • Total cars affected: 1123752

    • NHTSA campaign: 16V096000

    • Date of the problem: 19/02/2016

    A cut seat belt may not properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing their risk of injury in a crash.

    SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE

    • Total cars affected: 261114

    • NHTSA campaign: 14V054000

    • Date of the problem: 12/02/2014

    If this occurs, these systems could become inoperative, reducing the directional control assistance, increasing the risk of a crash.

    EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS

    • Total cars affected: 7525

    • NHTSA campaign: 13V123000

    • Date of the problem: 09/04/2013

    An inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. An overloaded vehicle can result in a tire failure which may result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or property damage.

    AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE

    • Total cars affected: 3235

    • NHTSA campaign: 13V014000

    • Date of the problem: 16/01/2013

    If the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration, the front passenger airbags may not deploy or they may deploy inappropriately for the passenger's size and position. This could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.

    EU rapid alert system

    • Risk level: 1

    • Rapex alert: A12/0257/16

    • Date of the problem: 04/03/2016

    In the event of a high-speed frontal collision, there is a possibility that the lap belt webbing of the seat belts intended for the outboard, second row seats could come into contact with a part of the seat cushion frame, be cut, and separate. If this occurred, the seat belt would not properly restrain the occupant, increasing the risk of injury for the occupant.
