What's wrong

The risk
THE DEFECTIVE BOLT HEADS COULD SHEAR OFF AFTERINSTALLATION AND ALLOW THE BUMPER TO FALL OFF THE TRAILER, RESULTING IN A ROADHAZARD AND POSSIBLE VEHICLE ACCIDENT OR PERSONAL INJURY.
The fix
REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE BOLTS WITH NEW BOLTS.

Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
