Our 179 is 2015 but I'll check anyway. When I got our Pod in April a guy I work with said he was traveling through Wisconsin when he saw an Rpod on the side of the road with the driver side wheel ripped off and some carnage on the road. Ironically a few miles up the road he got a flat tire.

Many thanks for posting the VIN range. Ours is affected and our dealer had no clue about the recall, so we're waiting to hear when we have to get the work done.

Pull your last 4 digits and compare them to the range listed.  If your number is within that range you're a part of it.
