• Tire pressure monitoring system. Recall 22V815000 involves 296,044 vehicles where the system may not detect simultaneous air pressure loss in all four tires quickly enough, failing safety standards. This raises the risk of a crash. Dealers will update TPMS software without cost to owners.
• Anti-theft control module flaw. Recall 19V615000 affects 679,027 vehicles with a silicate build-up on the shift lever micro switch contacts allowing key removal when the transmission is not in "Park." This can cause unintended rollaway crashes. Dealers will install an additional switch and circuit board for free.
• Steering column locking defect. This recall shares NHTSA number 19V615000 with the anti-theft control module defect and affects the same number of vehicles. It addresses the risk of key removal and vehicle rollaway by installing an additional switch and circuit board at no charge.
