Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Your Occupants

NHTSA’s three recalls address defects that can create serious safety concerns. An air bag inflator may malfunction or rupture, potentially sending metal fragments toward occupants and causing serious injury or death. A power train issue may keep the parking pawl from fully engaging, allowing the vehicle to move while in Park and increasing crash risk. A seat belt buckle may fail to latch, reducing occupant protection, or may not release during an emergency. Waiting leaves these conditions unverified. A free VIN check identifies whether your Armada needs a manufacturer remedy, so do not postpone checking after receiving a notice or hearing about a safety concern.
