⚠️ What's wrong
Certain passenger vehicles may have been built with an incorrectly manufactured automatic transmission parking pawl guide plate.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
