To verify whether your vehicle is affected by the engine recalls and KSDS campaigns, visit the above link. Once there, check under “Open Campaigns” and “Closed Campaigns” for the status of your vehicle’s applicable recalls and campaigns. For vehicles subject to the engine recalls, look for recalls 132, 162, 198, and 209 and check whether they have been completed. To confirm KSDS installation, look for Service Campaign 953 or 966 having been completed.
If these specific recall and campaign numbers do not appear for your VIN, your vehicle is not affected. If either of these recalls and campaigns appear under the “Open Campaigns” section, please call your nearest dealership for an appointment to complete the recall and KSDS campaign.
