Front grille deflector may detach while driving

Crash risk

The clips that hold the front grille deflectors in place can break, so a deflector can come loose. A loose piece can fall onto the road and become a hazard to you and other drivers, raising the risk of a crash.

Fix: The dealer will reinforce or repair all attachment points on the chrome front grille deflector at no cost to you.
