What this recall means for you
Certain vans may have an impact beam in the driver's side door with improper welds. The beam is meant to protect occupants during a side crash, so a weak weld means it may not provide adequate protection.
If the beam is not properly welded, the risk of injury to the driver in a crash increases. Owners should take this recall seriously and have the vehicle inspected and repaired promptly.
The repair is free: an authorized dealer will replace the driver's side door at no charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 3, 2025.
