On certain vehicles equipped with an IROS air suspension system, four fasteners that connect the main support members to the hanger bracket of the rear suspension may not have been torqued properly during assembly. With less than the specified clamp load, the bolts could fatigue and fail. A failure of these bolts could result in separation of the main support from the hanger bracket resulting in a sudden loss of control of the vehicle. This could cause a vehicle crash without warning, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace all four bolts.
