Details

What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, routing of the vehicle's front harness can allow it to come in contact with a rough edge, allowing abrasion. This could result in grounded circuits.

Why it matters: There could be a loss of stop or turn signal lamp operation or engine hesitation.

The fix: Dealers will install a protector, eliminating any harness contact. Owner notification began July 8, 2002.
