The hazard

On certain vehicles, the front suspension's right side upper A-arm bolt could loosen if not tightened properly during vehicle assembly. Should the bolt loosen and fall out the A-arm could dislodge, which could result in poor steering characteristics and could lead to a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will remove the right upper A-arm bolt, apply thread-lock agent to its threads, then reinstall and tighten to proper torque specifications.
