What's wrong

Due to an incorrect clutch-release bearing component, the affected clutches may not disengage as needed.

The loss of clutch function could cause unintended motion or extend stopping distance, increasing the risk of vehicle crash.
Remedy
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the clutches, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 8, 2014. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-745-8000. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-670.
