The short version

General Motors LLC reported a problem with the axle assembly axle shaft. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

On the affected vehicles, the right front half shaft may fracture and separate.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the half shaft fractures and separates while driving, the vehicle would lose power and coast to a stop. If a vehicle with a fractured half shaft is parked without the parking brake applied, the vehicle could move unexpectedly.

WHAT TO DO

Take it to a dealer — they will replace the half shaft assembly, free of charge.
