In some of the affected vehicles the rear axle bolts may fracture during vehicle acceleration and may prevent the vehicle from being held stationary if the parking brake is not applied.
Remedy
A software update will engage the electronic parking brake every time the vehicle is shifted into Park preventing vehicles from rolling.

What the owner should do?
Suppose you read about a recall that you think may affect your car. In that case, you should immediately contact a main dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about the eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accident damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), in that case, we suggest going to this page.
