Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. Recall repairs are free.

Steering › Linkages

Summary: Incorrect steering linkage components may have been installed on the involved vehicles. These vehicles were assembled with light duty steering linkage tie rod and center link assemblies in place of the specified heavy duty components. These light duty components are not compatible for attachment to the heavy duty knuckle arms, resulting in an inflexible (no ball joint movement) attachment of the tie rod to knuckle arm. This could, eventually, result in fatigue failure of that attachment on one of the components.
Remedy: The steering linkage system tie rods and center link will be inspected and, if necessary, light duty components will be replaced with heavy duty components at no cost to owner.
