Remedy: Dealers will inspect the vehicles and install any bolts that were missing. Notes: No owner notification will be perfomred on this campaign since the vehicles are still in transit to dealers or are being held at dealerships. Dates of Manufacture: October 1996 Manufacturer Recall Number: 96S58 |
