Issue

On certain vehicles equipped with 3.5L V6 engines, certain cylinder heads are missing machined holes intended to supply lubrication to the camshaft bearing journals. Lack of proper camshaft lubrication will result in premature engine failure and loss of motive power while the vehicle is in motion, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the engine.
