What can happen

Safety consequence

The loose bolt may cause improper wheel tracking, increasing the risk of a crash.

What fixes it

MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tightness of the bolt connecting the upper control arm and the axle stub on the affected vehicles, replacing the upper control arm if necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 2017. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372.
