Details
What's wrong: Some of these vehicles have a power steering cooler hose that can separate from the power brake booster fluid flow switch assembly.
Why it matters: If this occurs, power steering fluid could flow onto hot engine parts and an engine compartment fire could occur.
The fix: Dealers will inspect for three screw clamps to the power steering hose joints. If the clamps are not the screw type, dealers will replace the clamps.
