If this occurs, the driver may experience loss of steering control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Manufacturer remedy
MCI will notify owners, and dealers will add a secondary drive shaft containment hoop forward of the tag axle support structure, free of charge. The recall began on August 7, 2014. Owners may contact MCI customer service at 1-847-285-2090. MCI's number for this recall is 414.
