REVISION SUMMARY
Under AFFECTED VEHICLES, several models were added, and the warranty extension period was increased from 5

This warranty extension will not apply to any vehicle that has ever been declared a total loss or sold for salvage by a
financial institution or insurer, or has a branded or similar title under any state’s law.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this campaign.
Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Diagnose the vehicle, if DTC 53-01 or DTC 53-02 is stored, replace the power steering gear box assembly.
