What is wrong

On certain sport utility vehicles, the owner's manual does not contain the required higher rollover risk warning information.

The risk

Without the rollover warning information in the owner's manual, drivers may not be aware of the significantly higher rollover rate on this type vehicle, which could result in a crash.

The fix

Daimlerchrysler will mail an addendum to the owner's manual to all affected vehicle owners. The recall began on november 14, 2006. Owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-[removed].
