Mitsubishi RVR: Suspension

Affects Mitsubishi RVR · 2013 — about 62 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the stabilizer link bracket on the left front strut may have been improperly welded during the manufacturing process. As a result, the bracket may detach from the strut and damage the tire and/or brake hose. Tire failure could cause the driver to lose vehicle control, whereas a damaged brake hose could cause a loss of brake fluid, which may increase stopping distances. Both issues could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the left front strut assembly.
